In 1984 Roger Ulrich published "View Through a Window May Influence Recovery from Surgery" in Science magazine. Ulrich compared surgery recovery data from rooms that had either a view of a natural scene or a brick wall. The results are striking;

fewer negative evaluative comments in nurses' notes
administration of significantly less pain medication
During the same year, E.O. Wilson published Biophilia which suggests that humans possess an innate desire to seek connections with nature and other forms of life.
These influential documents underpin 35 years of additional science supporting the importance of connections to nature.
