Access: Sometimes, there aren’t enough parks or safe places to play outside. This can make it tough to get outside.
Motivation: Feelings like anxiety or depression can make people not want to go outside. It’s easy to just stay at home instead.
Physical Limitations: If someone has a long-term illness, they might find it hard to move around and enjoy outdoor fun.
Community Initiatives: We can create local programs to make outdoor spaces safer and easier to get to.
Support Systems: Friends and family can help motivate each other to get outside, which can also lessen feelings of anxiety.
Gradual Exposure: It can help to start with small and easy outdoor activities. This way, people can feel more comfortable and confident being outside.
