Take Me Out to the Ballgame
Take me out to the ballgame!
Buy me some peanuts and Shake Shack burgers and bring some for my friends!
As Summer is winding down in the northeast, it has been fun to take time to enjoy a classic summer venue – the ballpark! Three friends and I did some personal and professional networking on a recent Wednesday afternoon and attended a noon time game.
Turns out our outing was a “wellness” practice in disguise in addition to a painless networking opportunity.
One of the group reported experiencing the same amazing feeling she had as a child when she went to a baseball game with her family.
Another shared how nice it was to be outside in the middle of the day – a rare happening for her.
Moral of the story: Get outside while the weather is warm, bring some friends or colleagues with you, and notice how much of a refuel it can be.
Leslie Miller Greenspan Nella Bloom (she/her) Sophia Lee – thank you for such a fun day!

Research shows that being near, in, on, or under the water can improve our mood and our health, and increase our creativity and connectedness. “People can experience the benefits of the water whether they’re near the ocean, a lake, a river, a swimming pool or even listening to the soothing sound of a fountain,” says Wallace J. Nichols, a marine biologist, avid scuba diver and author of Blue Mind (2014).
