Comparison of Two Park-Based Activities on Emotional Well-Being in Adults With Mobility Impairments

Participants will be asked to continuously move at a moderate pace along a park trail for 30 minutes, with limited rest periods. The research assistant will monitor the person while in the park and the participant will be asked to turn off their cell phone during this time.

Participants will be asked to stay within a specific area of the park, relax and enjoy the scenery and engage their senses (see, touch, smell, and listen to nature). In addition, the participant will be told they can engage in meditation, mindfulness, and daydreaming. The research assistant will monitor the person while in the park and the participant will be asked to turn off their cell phone during this time.
