Human beings were made to live in nature. That’s our home.

And now we know the answer to this question through personal experience.

[AlexeyFilippenkoPlummet]

Going outside is healthy because of human interaction and possible socialization. I'm a loner of probably 7 years, I see almost no one, and it's so destructive, but you can never explain this to people. All the associate being home alone is relaxation time, they can't imagine how it is to not have intimate relationships, friends, lauhgs, hugs, thoughtful discussion, walks with people you like, solving sommon problems etc.

This reminded me of the main character in "Ready Player 1." He stays in his apartment for months and takes vit D and walks on the treadmill daily. Great book btw

Information on your channel is so vital and original. This video should have much much more views. Love from India.

I’m glad I came across your channel because I’m going through a lot right now and one of them is the fear of going outside. I feel that the whole world Is conspiring against me, Just waiting for me to fail. But I really want to change that.

What Happens when you don't go outside? Depression slowly eats you alive from the inside n out. You think you love it, staying inside playing games having fun until the games get boring and sooner or later you realize you waste your entire time for years doing the same thing over and over and over and over and over again.. And again. No social skills, no friends, waste of potential *laughs depressedly and insanely*

That feeling when you started your highest peak in advancement in your life and realisation of your further goals and intents and plan just at the peak of the highest length of darkness and coldness in my country, therefore now I am impatiently patient for the summer, I will have 3 months free of school and heck, I can do so much in one day where I am not obliged by somebody to spend half of my time in a forced environment, I have learned so much in the last months, became stable in many ways and just have the wisdom on how important your time is and realize how much time I have wasted before. I am 17 now, however the feeling of spring popping up and the sun literally getting closer to the summer version is such a great feeling, combine that with what I have learned, achieved and what I am currently creating, it just feels so damnn good.

My husband is a construction superintendent so his stress levels are thru the roof and his way to de-stress is to stay indoors sleeping. For the last month, I’ve been taking him on small nature walks and to the lake just to breathe in some fresh air. I have him doing some light stretching and deep breathing and I can tell you from first hand experience, it has really made a difference. He is much more relaxed and although work is still super stressed, when he gets too overwhelmed, he knows how to close is eyes and take a breather. I’m sure the subs and laborers appreciate not having radios and hard hats thrown at them 😂😂

Thank you for sharing this video. You made me laugh and feel a little less depressed lol while going through a global pandemic crisis.

Namaste, Val.

This is some quality content.
Earned a sub from Brazil, keep it up!

I guess it would be timely if you could also discuss simple ways on how to combat the negative effects of staying indoors for an extended period of time (eg. self-quarantine)

Hey Man, going through alot at the moment. Glad i found your channel, wrote a couple notes down from each video i watched of yours. Many videos on youtube that i come upon aren't simplified like the ones you post. I look forward to seeing new content, peace and love from New Zealand

Watching this during lockdown and hoping for a nature walk before 2021.

Also, taking Vitamin D supplements doesn't give you all the benefits as getting it naturally from direct sunlight. It also absorbs better since direct sunlight stimulates your skin to produce Vitamin D and it's pushed directly into your bloodstream, rather than barely any of it getting absorbed after being bathed in acid in your stomach.

You are my hero I love the way you teach!!!

[Seichu-uhhc]

I love your videos! Like the contents and small jokes😂

[rohanadimasimpan]

Being around to many people is very stressful. FACT!
