This episode of Protecting Hope is being launched as a part of our collaboration with the USDA Forest Service International Programs for International Day of Forests 2023. This year IDF is focused on forests and health. In this episode, we interview Dr. Kathleen Wolf, a research social scientist that focuses on nature-based human health. Dr. Wolf discusses some of her research and talks about the human health and well-being benefits that we experience when we spend time in nature. If you need motivation to get outdoors or just want to know why you feel so good after a short hike, tune in and hear about the ways we benefit from time spent in nature.
