EXPLORE THE BENEFIT OF NATURE

All experts will tell you that the closer to nature and natural, the better for you. Natural is free and does not cost much. 

Most of our modern processed stuffs and artificial lifestyle reduce lifespan. Nothing is as refreshing as fresh air. No air-conditioning system can do for you what fresh air can do and it is free. I am not canvassing a troglodyte lifestyle (savage who live in caves), but you can still harness the free gift of nature in your home, even though modern in design. You can be modern in the natural. 

An added advantage of strolling in your compound with your loving spouse and children while plucking mango, orange, apples, berries, cashew, etc, from trees in your compound, eating them raw and fresh. A few pineapples, etc, will spice it up. 

A great health benefit and cost saving too. Few things are as powerful as walking about in your spacious compound filled with well arranged nature. Proper planning can fix this. Surround yourself with nature both in and outside your house, sit and bask in it and reap the following. Let's explore more about nature I dug up online
