Walking Support Groups For Men

Research shows that a mere 10 minutes out in a nature increased happiness and lessened physical and mental stress according to a 2020 Cornell University study. A 2018 study demonstrated that when people were out in nature, they tend to become calmer and they develop social identities like a sense of community and shared sense of purpose and belonging. Yet, 72% of people that participated in outdoor recreational activities in 2020 were white compared to only 9% of Black and African Americans.  Research has also found that walking groups are safe, effective,  and provide a variety of health benefits.
