Two hours outside this week

The plan
When I plan my weekend, I'll pick one walk somewhere green or by the water.
How you'll know
Two hours outside this week, in any split.

Why

People who spent at least 120 minutes a week in nature were more likely to report good health and wellbeing, and it didn't matter how the time was split up White and colleagues, 2019. It's a survey, so it shows a link, not a cause.

If it doesn't fit

Eat lunch outside, or take a call on a walk.
