Getting Outside: A Breath of Fresh Air
With school being entirely online, it’s now easier than ever to stay inside for days on end. I know that during my first online term, there were stretches of days at a time where I didn’t step outside at all. When I didn't have to walk around campus to get to class, my default state of existence became indoors, sitting at my desk, staring into my laptop, and it took an intentional effort to get outside. During my second online school term I made that intentional effort to get outside at least once every day and I noticed a real difference in my mental health because of it.
