The forest seems to be the perfect place for this - it offers balancing stimuli, health-promoting effects and its climate is proven to be effective on human health. This non-fiction book explains the background and facts about the effect of forest visits on a scientifically sound basis and sensitizes readers to the great health benefits of forest bathing (Shinrin-Yoku) and forest therapy. As an oasis of tranquility, the forest invites you to slow down, regenerate and draw new energy. Written for interested lay people - psychotherapists, doctors and other health professionals can read along.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>From the contents:&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>How the forest and its climate affect us - How to discover and use the forest and its atmosphere for your health.&nbsp;</p><p>The Authors:&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>Prof. Dr. Dr. Angela Schuh and Gisela Immich, M.Sc., research the effects of forests and climate onhealth at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Munich, Germany, and develop concepts for preventive forest use as well as forest therapy.&nbsp;</p><p></p>This book is a translation of the original German&nbsp;1st&nbsp;edition&nbsp;<i>Waldtherapie - das Potenzial des Waldes für Ihre Gesundheit</i>&nbsp;by&nbsp;Angela Schuh and Gisela Immich, published by Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature in 2019.
