For an article on the study go to, Tranquil scenes have a positive impact on the brain.

Love your post and blog, Deborah...thanks for following me on Twitter...I came to check out your site and I'm so very glad I did. I know we are on the same page about many things...the foundations of self-esteem are laid in the first five years...parents have a golden opportunity to use Positive Parental Participation to help their young children develop a positive self-image. And being outdoors is a really important element also...http://bit.ly/prH6c8...I did a post on just that topic two weeks ago.
