Mindfulness by Miles

The U.S. has just transitioned into a new season. After months of cold weather, people are once again enjoying bright days under the sun.

What do you personally associate the spring season with?

Blooming flowers?

Vibrant days?

Pollen allergies?

In today’s article, we’ll discuss this global CEO’s thoughts on how and why you should make the most out of the spring season.

According to MBO Partners’ CEO Miles Everson, spring is currently in full bloom in Austin, Texas. The weather is warmer, there are more hours of daylight, and there always seems to be a new burst of energy in the air.

For him, this means people no longer have any excuse to stay inside their homes.

He says during winter, it’s easy and instinctively normal to cozy up indoors. However, with the coming of a new season, it’s time to say goodbye to hiding under warm blankets and binging on another Netflix or Hulu series.

Simply said, it’s time to get back outside!

In today’s fast-paced and technology-driven world, Everson believes it is all the more important to carve out time to get outside and reconnect with nature. Whether it’s a walk in the park or a hike in the mountains, spending time in the great outdoors has numerous benefits for one’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

In fact, he’s been recently exploring the importance and benefits of getting out in nature and how it can improve people’s lives. He narrowed down the top reasons for you below:

  1. Physical Health 

Everson says it’s no secret that any type of movement can be good for one’s physical health. However, getting outside has added bonuses. 

Outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, and swimming provide excellent opportunities for exercise and help improve cardiovascular health, build strength, and increase flexibility. Additionally, the exposure to sunlight helps the body produce vitamin D, which is essential for healthy bones and a strong immune system. 

With the weather transitioning from one season to another, it’s important to do whatever you can to help your immune system combat sicknesses. 

  1. Mental & Emotional Health 

According to Everson, one of the significant effects of spending time in nature is its added benefits over one’s mental and emotional well-being. Studies have shown that spending time outdoors reduces stress, anxiety, and depression. 

What else? 

Exposure to natural surroundings proves to have a calming effect on the mind! The reason for this is linked to the sound and smell of nature, both of which reduce tension and promote relaxation. 

  1. Connection with Others

Though it’s great to have “me time” and days or nights at home, Everson says it’s also important to spend time connecting with others. 

In fact, being outside is one of his favorite ways to do just that… and there are countless activities that he and his loved ones can choose from! These activities include camping, fishing, or even just walking together. 

Aside from that, Everson recognizes his father-and-son hikes and camping expeditions as some of the main strengtheners of his relationship with his family—in this case, with his son. A personal favorite memory of his is reaching the peak of Mount Kilimanjaro with his son when the latter was still in college. They bonded together by helping one another through difficult parts of the trail and complaining that they just wanted to eat a real meal once the hike was complete. 

Everson’s main point here? 

No matter who you spend time with outdoors, being outside will provide you with opportunities to foster a sense of belonging and connectedness.

Overall, getting outside is one of the most essential parts to maintaining a healthy and well-balanced life. Whether it’s walking in the park or backpacking for a trip in the wilderness, reconnecting with nature provides numerous benefits.

Besides, with the coming of spring, there truly is no excuse to simply remain indoors. So, prep yourself up and get ready to go outside once again!

We hope you find today’s topic helpful and insightful!
