Doctors are prescribing the great outdoors, but that's not great for everyone.

Spending time outside is a cheap way to improve your health—if you're rich.

It's not easy being green.

▼ Doctors have always been creative with their prescriptions. In the late 18th century, patients were sent for medically-mandated sea  bathing. Today, individuals with celiac disease can get an Rx—and a tax deduction—for gluten-free foods. Last summer, healthcare providers made the news by writing scripts for nature: a doctor’s note for the great outdoors.
The benefits of being outside are obvious to anyone who’s tried it. Recent laboratory science has attempted to quantify this sense of bliss. Studies show that being immersed in nature is associated with reduced stress and anxiety,  better sleep, and lowered blood  pressure and heartrate. It can reduce your risk of developing obesity, diabetes, and asthma and  allergies, and cause symptoms to improve among people who already struggle with such problems. Our senses sharpen, our irritation fades away, and our overall well-being improves. Whether it’s an urban park or a romp through a faraway forest, any exposure seems to be better than none (though the more  remote, the better).
But access remains unequal. (▪ ▪ ▪)
