REFLECTION QUESTIONNature Do Nature ActivitiesWhat did you observe while spending time outside -- through sight, sound, smell and/or touch?
Hannah Sheehan 10/22/2018 12:38 PMI went for a walk through the woods on our trails and experienced the crisp autumn air coupled with the crunching of the fallen leaves. It was sunny so I felt some warmth but the wind kept my skin covered in goosebumps. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicity Go For A Daily Walk OutsideFresh air and movement are good for our entire being and can help us think more clearly and creatively. How does taking a walk each day affect yourself and/or your work?
Hannah Sheehan 10/22/2018 12:35 PMThis is definitely true for me. I used to think just standing up and walking around inside was a good study break but I feel more refreshed after walking outside for a few minutes instead. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONNature Join An Outdoor ProjectHow well do you know the area you stay in -- whether your hometown or your campus community? In what ways is a deep knowledge of your surroundings -- known as a 'sense of place' -- important to you?

Hannah Sheehan 10/17/2018 7:24 AMIt definitely does. I don’t like walking in the rain when I have my backpack with my laptop in it and I don’t like walking home from work at night. Sometimes I will ask for a ride from a friend if they are coming back from a trip. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONNature Explore My AreaHow might spending more time outdoors enhance your brainpower?
