15-minute outdoor activities to refresh
Refreshing 15-minute outdoor activities include a brisk walk around the block, sitting on a bench without your phone, or taking a mindful stroll through a park.
Fifteen minutes outdoors resets your circadian rhythm, lowers cortisol, and improves mood. You don't need a hike — just daylight and air.
