The April, 2010 issue of Better Homes and Gardens included an interesting note about Marc Berman, PhD, a researcher at the University of Michigan who noted a 20% improvement in the short term memory of study participants who were send on hour-long walks in nature. The rejuvenating process also increased attention capacity, but it only worked when people walked in parks and other natural environments, not when they strolled on busy city streets.
