Some places to get started

 * 1) Green exercise and Green exercise and foundational studies by Kaplan and Ulrich and more recent studies by the University of Essex, especially Jules Pretty and Jo Barton, particularly their recent meta-analysis
 * 2) Recent UC Honours green exercise Honours theses by Mackay, Holgate, and Rugendyke, supervised by James Neill - there is one published article from these studies - Mackay and Neill (2010), but I can also share the other theses
 * 3) Key emotional outcomes included stress and mood, but may also include mental health and psychological well-being more generally
 * 4) For theory, check out biophilia hypothesis/psychoevolutionary theory, attention restoration theory (Kaplan), and stress recovery theory (Ulrich)

Hi! I saw this topic and thought it sounded really interesting, I found an article to help get you started on EBSCOhost its called "The mental and physical health outcomes of green exercise" written by Pretty, J., Peacock, J., Sellens, M., & Griffin, M. (2005). I'm not sure how to link it through here sorry, but if you type the title into EBSCOhost and look for the authors and year you should be able to find it easily. You could perhaps also discuss how social media has played a part in exercise promotion such as instagram and everything like that. Or the recent surge of fitness brands like Lorna Jane and Nike suddenly becoming popular and whether or not they contribute? Just a thought. Goodluck with your chapter --U3068359 (discuss • contribs) 01:06, 27 October 2013 (UTC)u3068359
