Whether you’re hiking in Alaska through the Tongass National Forest, kayaking on the hidden lakes, or are reeling in a monster catch, you’ll feel a sense of self-care like never before. Here are three reasons why spending time in nature will be one of the best ways to improve your health overall!
1. Health Benefits of the Sun
During the colder months, you tend to find everyone hibernating in their house, experiencing the winter blues in addition to feeling a sense of lower energy levels. Throughout your daily outings during the Alaska fishing season, your body will take in vitamin D from natural sunlight exposure. Also, you’ll be increasing your serotonin levels with which will improve your energy, keep you calm, and help you de-stress. Spending your days under the sun in Angoon, Alaska, will lower your blood pressure, promote healthy bone growth, and will help strengthen your immune system.
2. Disconnect While Feeling Connected
As you spend time fishing, exploring, and hiking in Alaska, you’ll be connecting with your different senses throughout your daily treks. Taking in the sights, sounds, and fresh scents of the Tongass National Forest will be an experience unparalleled to any other. Sometimes disconnecting entirely from life conflicts, work deadlines, and the feelings of suffocation from all of the noise of everyday life is necessary. Being around breathtaking landscapes, wildlife, bright blankets of greenery, and sounds of the water as you fish in Alaska will help you center your mental, physical, and emotional health.
3. Gain Hands-On Experience
As you fish in Alaska, not only will you improve your strength and balance, you’ll also be gaining a new life experience that will stick with you for years to come. Whether you’re reeling in a catch or are hiking in Alaska, you’ll be improving your reaction time as well as growing your natural survival instincts.
