Today we're discussing the impact of urban green spaces on mental health. A recent study conducted in Melbourne followed 1,000 residents over five years. Participants who lived within 300 meters of a park or garden reported 20% lower stress levels compared to those without nearby green areas. Interestingly, the benefits were strongest for people aged 40 to 60. The study also found that simply having a view of trees from a window improved mood, but regular visits to the park were more effective. So, while passive exposure helps, active use is key.
