About this listen

David Strayer, a cognitive neuroscientist at the University of Utah, noticed he gets his best ideas when he’s in the wilderness for three days, so he decided to study what he calls the Three Day Effect. Florence Williams, author of The Nature Fix, takes him on a hike to learn more about what this research shows. She meets up with others who we’ll be following in this series, including veteran and activist Stacy Bare and writer Eric Weiner, who would much rather be darting in and out of cafes than river canyons. Florence, herself going through a divorce, signs on for a three-day research trip in the wilderness, hoping the emotional benefits will rub off.

Makes sense... I mean I've always felt better living in the forest than in the city.

But nature has a lot of wonders... David Asprey teaches a bit about this... the idea of Shinrin Roku which is forest bathing, and Earthing... it all has a point. The smell of pine oil actually has cancer fighting effects. Good stuff.

Nice

I know I could really get into the subject if you would remove all the distracting sound effects and weird music! Otherwise, likable topic! Let’s get into nature where we can get away from your city music!

Why the sound effects?
