A Mesmerizing Paradise
 For me, by just looking to this breath-taking scenery unravels my anxiety, stress, anger and
etc. somehow. It really calms and relaxes my mind, taking all the mental and emotional stress I
have from my problems and school works. According from new research from Cornell University,
it has found that as little as 10 minutes in a natural setting can help college students feel happier
and lessen the effects of both physical and mental stress. Nature helps us cope with pain. Since we
are genetically programmed to discover trees, plants, water, and other nature components
immersing, we are consumed by nature scenes and occupied/distracted from our agony and
distress. Being in nature, or in any event, seeing scenes of nature decreases outrage, dread, and
stress and increments pleasant sentiments. Exposure to nature not just causes you to feel better
inwardly, it adds to your physical wellbeing, lessening blood pressure, heart rate, muscle strain,
and the production of stress hormones. A study by the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine
and Public Health found that a natural environment allowed people to leave the stressors of their
everyday lives behind and instead focus their minds on something purer. By centering your mind,
you can relax your body. It gives our brain the downtime it needs to recharge. The human brain
requests 20% of all the energy the body produces, and this prerequisite increments by 5 to 10
percent when you're centered around a psychological test. At the point when the body is very still,
in any case, the brain doesn't stop movement—in any event not in the manner in which you
anticipate. At the point when individuals are in wandering off in a fantasy land state—something
all the more effortlessly accomplished in nature's quiet climate—their minds sink into what
researchers call the default mode network (or DMN). DMN is a complex circuit of coordinated
communication between parts of the brain and is essential to mental processes that develop our
understanding of human behavior, instill an internal code of ethics, and help us realize our
identities. In my own opinion, by seeing this picture really lighten up my mood and somehow
relieves my stress and anxiety.
