Outdoor experiences provide a departure from conventional settings, fostering mental well-being and stress alleviation. Immersive encounters cultivate interpersonal and non-verbal communication, enhance physical health, and heighten spiritual and sensory awareness.
Studies emphasize the pivotal role of routine outdoor engagement in maintaining children’s mental health. Exposure to natural surroundings contributes to emotional resilience and stress reduction. The outdoor setting acts as a stress reliever for both participants and facilitators.
