‘Green’ exercise can improve your English

I saw a really interesting article on the BBC News website this weekend. It claims that exercising for five minutes in a green space such as a park can improve your mental health.

In their experiments, the researchers also found that it improves mood and self-esteem. If you have better self-esteem, you’ll feel more motivated and be able to reach your goals in English faster.

Practising English outdoors would be fun, too. Why not try it this lunchtime? Take your iPod to the park with you, put on an English podcast and enjoy being outdoors whilst practising English.
