                    Research Consultancy Nature, Daylight, and Health
                
             
            
            
            Nature offers green chances; both mental and physical health can
            benefit from exposure to nature.
            LightGreen Health focuses on research into
            the positive effects of nature on health, but also goes one step beyond.
            Nature is not only green, it also brings us natural light; daylight.
            Exposure to nature and daylight often goes hand in hand, and optimal
            exposure to daylight is quintessential for physical and mental
            wellbeing as well.
            
            
            LightGreen Health supports every phase of
            the research into — and implementation of — interventions
            with nature and light; optimizing allocation of the
            LightGreen chances offered by nature to help
            promote and sustain good mental and physical health.
            
         
        
            
            In 2010, I — Femke Beute — graduated (with honours) from
            the Master Human Technology Interaction
            at the Eindhoven University of Technology,
            a Master program at the intersection of psychology and engineering.
            At this university I also obtained my Bachelor in
            Architecture, Building, and Planning.
            During both educational programs, I developed a fascination with the
            interaction between our physical environment and health and wellbeing.
            
            
            During my PhD research at the
            Eindhoven University of Technology and
            subsequent Postdoctoral research at the
            Eindhoven University of Technology and
            University of Groningen,
            I specialized in the field of
            Environmental Psychology.
            Specifically, my focus has been on the positive effects of nature
            and daylight on health.
            Research has demonstrated that both nature and daylight exhibit
            health-protective effects.
            However, the effects of nature and daylight have rarely been jointly
            investigated.
            A missed opportunity, as exposure to green and daylight often go
            hand in hand!
            
            
            In addition to the restorative effects of nature and daylight, the
            application of innovative research methods increasingly received my
            attention.
            I have investigated the opportunities for conducting ecologically
            valid studies in the realm of everyday life — and outside of
            the psychological laboratory — by employing mobile technology
            to administer
            Ecological Momentary Assessment (also
            known as Experience Sampling).
            
            
            During the summer of 2018, I started
            LightGreen Wellbeing to substantiate
            research into the LightGreen chances of
            nature and to enable translation of scientific results to everyday
            applications. Due to the frequent assignments in Scandinavia,
            Lightgreen Wellbeing moved up North, to
            Denmark in 2019, and became
            LightGreen Health
            (LyseGrøn Sundhed).
            In 2021, we moved even further up to beautiful Norway!
            
            
            Besides that I started writing children's stories inspired by the
            positive effects of nature and daylight on health and creating
            educational media explaining the benefits of nature and daylight.
            I am also affiliated to both Groningen University
            (natural environments) and
            Jönköping University ((day)light).
            
         
        
            
            LightGreen Health offers consultancy during
            all phases of the research into the effects of green and light as
            well as advice for the application of evidence-based interventions
            in daily practice.
            In addition, you can also turn to me for advise on — and
            execution of — experience sampling studies, or ecological
            momentary assessments employing mobile technology.

                Learn & Play: Wellbeing of school children
            
            Within the 
Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership
            "Learn & Play: Home edition", the focus is on using digital
            media (i.e., gaming) to enhance wellbeing of school children aged 6
            to 11 years old. 
LightGreen Health supports
            this project (for the
            
Anatta Foundation
            ) in reporting of the theoretical foundations as well as the results
            of a study identifying the relevant wellbeing competencies of
            children.
            
                Nature Intelligence - Practice Brief
            
            Within the 
Erasmus+ project called Nature
            Intelligence, the focus is on nature intelligence in non-formal
            education to help adolescents connect with nature.
            For this project, 
LightGreen Health will be
            writing the practice brief to inform youth workers about what nature
            intelligence is, the practical implementations of nature intelligence
            in youth work, and the impact of nature interactions on young people
            and society. This project is performed for the
            
Anatta Foundation.
            
                Meta-analysis multi-laboratory replication study nature and stress reduction
            
            A replication study was conducted in ten different labs worldwide
            (the Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, the UK, and USA) to see whether
            an iconic study by Roger Ulrich in 1991, where exposure to nature
            videos was found to improve mood and lower physiological stress, can
            be replicated. 
LightGreen Health is
            conducting the meta-analysis for this replication study.
            
                Examinator Innlandet University
            
            In 2021, I also started working as an external examinator for
            
Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences.
            The courses concern for instance research methodology, and
            environmental and health psychology, and are part of the curriculum
            of the Psychology department.
            
                Educational videos explaining the effects of light on sleep
            
            In 2021, 
LightGreen Health received a grant
            from the 
                Svenssons Stiftelsen to develop educational videos
            explaining the general public, and in specific adolescents and
            young adults, how light exposure influences our sleep, with
            — for instance — a focus on the detrimental effects of
            light late at night (e.g., screen use), but also explains what
            different chronotypes are and how light can help improve sleep.
            The videos are currently under development and will be produced
            using stop-motion animation.
            
                External Advisory Board member Multisensory Outdoor Laboratory SLU (Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences)
            
            From March 2022, I am a member of the advisory board of the
            
Multisensory Outdoor Laboratory. This laboratory, 
Sensola,
            has the aim to conduct innovative (field) research with the use of
            ambulatory sensors.
            Together with other experts in the field, the aim is to provide
            oversight and promote reciprocal arrangements.
            
                Educational Material Light for Health and wellbeing
            
            In a collaboration with 
Myriam Aries and
            
Ulrika Wanstrom-Lindh from
            
Jönköping University, we are preparing an
            educational reader summarizing the effects of daylight and light on
            health and wellbeing.
            The focus is both on visual performance and effects beyond vision,
            and the reader is initially meant for students of the course
            ‘Light for Health and Wellbeing’, but further educational
            implementations are currently considered.
            
                Review Daylight and Views
            
            
            In collaboration with
            
                SageGlass this project aims to review the effects of
            exposure to daylight and different view types on health and wellbeing.
            This review will gather the state of the art in scientific evidence
            concerning the benefits of windows for health and wellbeing as well
            as the health-promoting effects of outdoor exposure to daylight and
            views.
            In a previous article (
            Beute & de Kort, 2015b,
                Salutogenic effects of the environment: Review of health-protective
                effects of nature and daylight)
            I have made a first overview
            of outcomes and underlying theoretical pathways and the present
            project will update and complement this knowledge, with a specific
            focus on windows. The report can be downloaded here.
            
            
                Light for Health & Wellbeing Research — Jönköping University
            
            
            Exposure to sufficient light is important for health and wellbeing.
            Timing of the light exposure is crucial, and the daylight curve is
            often used as the standard.
            We spend, unfortunately, not enough time outdoors to benefit from
            the high intensity light offered by the sun (even on overcast days),
            mostly because we have employment indoors.
            Innovations in lighting systems increasingly enable to do more than
            just turn the lights on and off; dynamic light patterns can turn
            office lighting into healthy lighting.
            But the main question is: which dynamic pattern is best?
            Together with
            
                Myriam Aries
            and
            
                Géza Fischl
            we investigate the effects of different dynamic patterns (light
            intensity, colour temperature, timing and duration) as well as
            individual light sensitivity on wellbeing and performance in two
            projects.
            A third project looks at the light exposure using a bottom-up
            approach; what are the dynamics in light exposure of people
            throughout the day and how do these patterns influence human
            cognition, affect, an behaviour?
            In addition, we investigate how lighting conditions can support work
            from home.
            These four projects (TuLiP 1 and 2, DAHLIA,
            and DAISY) are co-financed by the
            
                Svenssons Stiftelsen.
            A fifth project, SMILE (co-financed by the
            Swedish Energy agency
            investigates the application of smart lighting concepts in
            residential environments.
            
            
                EKLIPSE — Systematic review components of nature and mental health
            
            
            In an innovative Horizon 2020 project 
                EKLIPSE
            
            an assignment was issued by the
            French Ministry of Environment and the
            World Health Organisation (WHO) to
            investigate the beneficial effects of individual components of
            nature on mental health.
            In an international team, two systematic reviews are performed into
            the effects of these individual components on mental health.
            Specifically, the focus is on elements of blue space (water) and
            components of green space.
            Will, for instance, a beach visit give different outcomes on mental
            health than a visit to a lake, or is the forest better or worse for
            mental health than heathland?
            LightGreen Health coordinates the systematic
            review process and assists in the execution of the structural review
            process together with the
            
                EKLIPSE
            
            Expert Working Group.
            The outcome will be two reports; one for Blue spaces and one for
            Green Spaces.
            In addition, the outcomes of the two reviews will be presented in a
            booklet published by the World Health Organisation.

            Whitepaper — Give children nature (back)
            
            Children increasingly spend their time indoors, and can be found in
            natural environments less and less.
            What are the consequences of this growing nature shortage
?
            To answer this question, I made an overview of the current state of
            affairs in the scientific evidence for the beneficial effects of
            nature on mental and physical health for children, together with
            Agnes van den Berg of
            
                Natuurvoormensen
            (Nature for People).
            This whitepaper was issued by the Dutch National Trust (
            
                Natuurmonumenten
            ) and has the title:
            Give Children Nature (Back) (in Dutch:
            Geef Kinderen de Natuur (Terug)
.
            
            
            More information (in Dutch) about the outcomes of the whitepaper can
            be found in
            
                this newsletter
            of the national trust.
            You can find the report (in Dutch)
            here.
            We are also working on an English journal publication on this topic.
            
            LightGreen Stories
            
            I also write stories for children.
            These stories all incorporate my scientific knowledge on the
            LightGreen chances of nature and daylight.
            The aim is to inform children and youth about the effects of nature
            and daylight in a playful and informal way.
            
            
            In 2018, my story
            Nobody asks (in Dutch:
            Niemand Vraagt
) won a writing
            competition of the renowned Dutch Publisher
            Lemniscaat
            together with ScriptPlus (Language Centre Free University Amsterdam).
            The competition was held in the context of the children’s book week,
            with the theme friendship.

            The aim of this master course within the
            Environmental Psychology group is to
            present students with a critical view on an existing research field.
            The course consists of a one-hour lecture, followed by a plenary
            discussion.
            The lecture introduced daylight as an integral part of natural
            environments, and thus as part of nature’s benefits on health and
            wellbeing.

                - Results of a field study performed by students in the
                    previous year, testing the effects of two dynamic light
                    patterns on affect and performance;
 
                - Restorative qualities of windows (views to nature and
                    psychological and non-visual benefits of daylight);
 
            
            
            In my current position at
            Jönköping University, I am
            involved in both the
            Light for Health and Wellbeing course
            and the Lighting Science course.

                        18-19 November 2022
                    
                
            
            This conference contribution presented a more holistic view on the
            benefits of nature by including daily, seasonal, and climatic
            fluctuations in the outdoor environment.
            Daylight  adds a temporal dimension to restoration research, with
            cycles of active days and restful nights as well as seasonal
            differences in daylight hours and their effects on, for instance,
            affective states.
            These temporal dynamics and fluctuations also occur in other weather
            elements and highly influence how we perceive the world around us
            (e.g., a forest in autumn versus summer) or the restorative
            activities we engage in (e.g.,  skiing in the snow).
            In addition, they can also pose constraints on restoration, for
            example when we are not able to be active in the park when
            temperatures are too high, or when we can’t spend our summer days
            outdoors because of bad summer weather.

            In this presentation, the results of the scoping review focusing on
            the benefits of windows, performed with a grant from
            SageGobain (see also my 
portfolio section).
            The effects were categorized into different settings: home, office,
            healthcare, education and discussed both the clear benefits of
            windows (and in particular a view and daylight entrance), but also
            pointed at a need for future research and for a better integration
            of the effects of view type and daylight entrance.

            At this workshop, organized by the
            World Health Organisation, I presented the
            outcomes of two systematic reviews investigating which green/blue
            space type or characteristic is most beneficial for mental health.

            During this surprise
 seminar, I discussed the benefits of
            green and blue space on health and wellbeing as well as the benefits
            of exposure to daylight. The focus was on two very timely topics:
            
            
                - how to keep cities liveable in times of urbanization, and
 
                - how nature and daylight can contribute to increased
                    wellbeing and lower stress when working from home during the
                    corona-pandemic.

            This seminar, with the title
            
                
                    The need for a more comprehensive concept of nature in
                    restoration research
                
            
            , discussed the following: Natural environments are good for us.
            But many questions still remain unanswered about what it is
            exactly that gives nature its’ salutogenic properties.
            Is it the green of the leaves, or the chance to escape stressful
            urban life?
            During this talk, I addressed this issue and discussed the
            importance of a natural element that is often overlooked in
            restoration research; the sun.
            It orchestrates our circadian rhythms, but also climatic conditions
            and the change of seasons.
            How does daylight relate to the beneficial effects of nature?
            And looking toward the future: how does climate change influence
            nature’s restorative potential?

            Humans benefit from exposure to natural space in many ways.
            An increase in exposure to both green (grass, trees, shrubs) and
            blue (coast, rivers) spaces have been found related to better
            cognitive performance, and better mental and physical health.
            These results are relatively well established in within restorative
            environments research in experimental and longitudinal studies.
            This seminar with the title:
            
                
                    Gaining a better understanding of the benefits of nature:
                    Differentiation versus Expansion of the concept of nature
                
            
            discussed two ways to move the field of restoration research
            forward; a better differentiation in — as well as
            the expansion of — the concept of nature.
            First, there is a need for more differentiation in the types and
            characteristics of natural environments as well as on differential
            outcomes on the individual level.
            Many studies take a rather global look on nature as either
            green
 or blue
, but which characteristics and types of
            nature are particularly beneficial; is, for example, grass as good
            as a tree?
            Furthermore, not all individuals may benefit equally from nature
            exposure.
            This will be illustrated by looking at children.
            Specifically, as yet there is little differentiation between
            children and adults. Second, the seminar introduced a more
            comprehensive concept of nature.
            Nature is more than green and blue space.
            What about the role of one of the most endogenous factors in our
            daily lives; the sun?

            During this lecture, with the title:
            
                
                    Nature is more than green and blue space: the implementation
                    of a more comprehensive definition of nature in restoration
                    research
                
            
            , I discussed that we need to know more about the exact content of
            nature and how this affects human health and wellbeing.
            In addition, I presented some studies concerning the joint effects
            of nature and daylight exposure.

            The direct environment can have great influence on health and
            wellbeing.
            In this symposium, a broad outlook on these effects was presented
            from different angles: from medication remains in drink water to the
            beneficial effects of exposure to nature.
            This latter topic was presented by me, looking at benefits of blue
            and green spaces, as well as the importance of daylight.
            This seminar was aimed at medical professionals and practitioners.
