it's increasingly becoming my opinion that spending quality time outdoors is important for your health. that's your ecosystem. your environment is an extension of your own body. as humanity gets increasingly interested and trapped in its own constructions you have to reorient yourself with what's real.
It’s also super fun to learn about the organisms that live outside! I like using iNaturalist to share my findings but you also can do it without posting anywhere, just get a field guide and/or comprehensive dichotomous key for your area and have fun discovering that even just the weeds that grow around your area alone have really incredible diversity
