Oh the great outdoors! From enjoying the  scenery while on a long hike or just simply embracing the sunlight while outside. You can always find  serotonin in nature.

According to mind.org.uk, “Spending time in nature has been found to help with mental health problems including anxiety and depression. For example, research into ecotherapy (a type of formal treatment which involves doing activities outside in nature) has shown it can help with mild to moderate depression.”

My sister Isabella Woodford and I recently explored beyond on the hiking trail Bear Rocks. She said, “It was so nice to get out. I’m glad I have a way to safety get out of the house during quarantine.”

How do you stay busy during the quarantine? Tell the ETC staff in the comments below!
