Camping Reflection Paper

Camping is defined as an outdoor recreational activity. The participants leave

urban areas, their home region, or civilization and enjoy nature while spending one or
several nights outdoors, usually at a campsite. This type of recreational activity has
many benefits specifically on our health. The Mayo Clinic reports that meditation may
improve a number of serious medical conditions by increasing self-awareness and
giving a person stress-reduction tools. If you suffer from depression, fatigue, heart
disease or even allergies, research shows that camping can improve your overall
health. Camping also allows you to cope with stress. Stress can negatively affect your
health in just about every way possible, and you're putting much less strain on your
mental and physical faculties by giving yourself some stress-free time at the campsite.
