The Benefits of Nature on Our Well-Being

Nature offers a treasure trove of benefits for your physical and mental health. In the modern era, life is increasingly hectic and dominated by technology; it's time to remember the soothing and rejuvenating advantages that nature can offer you.
Spend time outdoors to improve your health. Fresh air and physical activity associated with forest walks or mountain hikes boost your immune system, reduce stress, and promote restful sleep.
Exposure to natural light stimulates the production of vitamin D, essential for bone health and mood regulation.
Mentally, nature has a calming and stress-reducing effect. Simply gazing at a natural landscape can reduce anxiety and enhance concentration. Natural environments facilitate meditation and deep reflection, allowing for inspiration and creative problem-solving.
The benefits of nature are priceless; take the time to reconnect with nature by taking a walk in a park, camping in the great outdoors, or simply spending time in your garden.
Nature offers you an endless source of well-being and vitality; it would be a shame not to take advantage of it. Written by Zagon

How to refresh your house?

When the heat is overwhelming, it is best to make arrangements in the morning, at sunrise. Unlike Julien Clerc's song "Let the sunshine in", we will be careful not to let in the sun to spend a day at home in the best possible conditions. First, close your blinds or shutters leaving a slight gap to filter a little light of life. Have you thought, and this is valid day and night, to stretch a soggy cloth, not too much but just enough, in front of your window? The water evaporates creating a welcome sensation of freshness. In addition, if you have green plants at home, it is good to moisten with a soaked handkerchief or mist, it will spread a little freshness in your room. Finally, ventilate! And open your windows only rarely: early in the morning or late at night. Written by David

Dress your plants for winter!

Winter can sometimes be fatal to plants accustomed to warmer temperatures too, so as not to let the flowers of your balconies or gardens perish, there are different types of protection. One of the most common is mulching, an effective and easy to find insulation: ten centimeters of straw or flax straw will allow the soil and roots, considered the most vulnerable part of the plant, to protect frost. The fern foliage is also a good alternative. For potted plants, prefer a kind of bubble plastic jacket. As for the protection of stems, branches or leaves, it is advisable to cover them with a wintering veil that will allow the air to filter and allow the plants to breathe. On the watering side, we stop everything, except for potted plants during the frost period. Persistent foliage needs some hydration to survive. Written by David

Watering her plants during the holidays

cation is great, but if it's to find your decaying plants on your return, it will have an air of apocalypse that you will have to remedy by a long-term job. For the August vacationers, who leave their plants to their fate, we deliver this trick to save their fiber. Get a plastic bottle that you will pierce the cap with a hot needle, for example. You will fill the water bottle and screw the cap back on; then, you will plant the bottle in the potting soil downwards while taking care to create a ventilation slot on the bottom. This drip will be your D system that will release water during your guilty absence. Of course, you will not forget to stall the bottle with the help of a tutor, or you will keep it with wire or with stones, pebbles. Written by David

The beauty of snowy landscapes

It is certain the sun, we love it especially when it points the tip of its nose to wrap us warmly. But we must recognize that some sites of our planet become irresistible when the snow comes to put them on... We can only recommend you visit Central Park when it snows big flakes, it becomes quite different, as draped in a white dream. Amsterdam becomes unavoidable when the white dresses and its channels freeze. We put on our ice skates to sneak in and spin gently. Rome is much freer and less crowded with tourists in winter and its Colosseum becomes so much rarer, veiled with innocence. Salzburg, the Austrian city par excellence must be seen at least once in its periods of extreme cold because it has all the magical place out of a fairy tale for children. Written by David

These incredible discoveries under the ice

As we know, the pack ice is melting in some parts of our planet, so researchers have come up with some amazing discoveries. In Siberia, in 2010, they unearthed a female mammoth of a ton that remained 39,000 years in the ice; its body was so well preserved that one could admire its coat and muscle tissue, much to the delight of scientists. For the first time in history, blood was extracted from a prehistoric animal called Yucca. And it was during the melting of the Mendenhall glacier in Alaska that a 1,000-year-old forest appeared. It is a vast expanse of spruces that has become the focus of the team of scientists. More recently, Taku Glacier, south of Juneau, Alaska, has undergone the same process to reveal a poplar forest.

The first date

You just broke up? Are you still single? You lament a little, if not much about your fate? To help you relativize or even give you back the banana, here are these few stories of the (worst) first dating. Check out this one, tweeted by Jimmy Fallon, famous US TV presenter: "My mother and I went to dinner and she surprised me with an arranged date. We had dinner all three!". Always in the dinner atmosphere, another says: "We went together in a restaurant, but the waitress was the ex of my companion who burst into tears begging her to come back. Divine, as a starter, is not it? Imagine yourself in the company of your date, installed in his car, this is what this woman says: "We stopped at the gas station and he asked me if his baby was thirsty. I told him no and he said he was talking about his car. Finally, as a conclusion, this pearl worthy of a bad burlesque film: "I come back to the table after going to the bathroom, his glass eye was in my vodka tonic. He looked at me and said he only had eyes for me. Written by David

Ross 128b: future habitable zone?

Discovered this autumn, this habitable planet comparable to the earth bears the same name as the star around which it gravitates. If it is heavier than our blue planet, its size and temperature are the same. It is the second planet called "terrestrial" closest to us, just after Proxima b. Astrophysicists agree that it is considered as the favorite among all the exoplanets discovered to consider living in it. Provided however that it is not already inhabited... Classified by scientists as a "temperate" planet it is twenty times closer to its star than is the land of the sun. But the star is also 280 times less luminous. The surface temperature of Ross 128b is between -60° and 20° C. If there is water, it is probably in liquid form. This is what makes dream and evokes certain stories of the science fiction-inspired novelist, Philip K. Dick... But will we know, if we live one day, to install ourselves with an ethic respectful of our environment? Written by David
