Rural, Coastal Natural Areas Better for Sense of Well-Being

It's not just your imagination - a new paper by Wyles et al in Environment and Behavior shows that it's better to get away from people and/or head to the coast, rather than spend time in a natural setting in the city. So, as much as some time forest-bathing (shinrin yoku) in an urban park will improve your state of mind, maybe it's worth that drive to get out of the city and away from people for an even better experience.
