This article discusses a recent study that shows that inmates in maximum security prisons are less violent if they watch videos of nature.  Nature is incredibly healing.  If they could get those inmates actually out among the trees, the results would be even stronger.

    1. I agree. Maybe if we keep talking about it people will start to catch on.
