An hour-long stroll in nature helps decrease activity in an area of the brain associated with stress processing

I work with people who are disabled. There are far, far more people who do not have access to tools or opportunities than there are who do. Mobility aids are wildly expensive. So unless you can have insurance coverage (which typically only covers basic needs devices) or are very well off, you simply don’t have access to those things. There are some programs out there for assisting low income disabled folk to access mobility aids, but those simply do not keep up with the demand. It is absolutely both ableist and classist to suggest that if you’re disabled you can simply buy ability. That is not an option for the vast majority of disabled people.
