Fun And Healthy Spring Activities

Gardening

Gardening not only offers the benefits of a fresh harvest to enjoy, but it also provides a variety of health benefits. Being outdoors in the sunshine while cultivating a garden increases your calcium levels, which strengthens your bones and immune system. This form of activity has also been found to lower the risk of dementia by thirty-six percent. It also has mood-boosting and stress-reducing benefits and can help combat loneliness.

If you want to get the biggest benefit from this springtime activity, find a few friends or a whole community who enjoy gardening as well. The company of others in combination with the sun exposure and aerobic exercise maximizes the benefits of gardening.
