It’s the first time a national medical organization in the world endorses a nature prescription program. The Canadian Medical Association has officially endorsed such a program by the B.C. Parks Foundation - the initiative called PaRx. The director of PaRx says the endorsement will normalize the idea within the medical profession that nature is essential for good health. The foundation has over 10,000 prescribers registered, including over 5% of all practicing physicians in the country. While most nature prescriptions are for mental health, other conditions can benefit from taking time out in nature, such as high blood pressure, poor sleep and cardiovascular disease.
