Health prescription: More green time
Local parks are places of health rejuvenation
Bay Area doctors are reporting that Type 2 diabetes, depression, anxiety, and feelings of loneliness and isolation are at an all-time high, especially among low-income groups.
Fortunately, some of these same doctors are focused on the health benefits of spending time in nature, and ‘prescribe’ nature time to their patients. It’s a wonderful example of a more progressive type of healthcare.
