Our emotions and mental well-being depends upon the release of hormones in our body. And regulating these hormones can be done by spending time in nature.<\/li>\n\n<li>One of the main hormone which corresponds to mental health is Cortisol. It is the stress inducing hormone in our body. According to the various researches conducted, we find that spending only 20 minutes in nature can reduce your cortisol level at a great rate.
