<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Originally published in Italy by Sperling & Kupfer Editori S.p.A in 2016."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In <i>The Secret Therapy of Trees</i>, Marco Mencagli and Marco Nieri explore the relationship between plants and organisms, and illustrate how to benefit from nature's positive impact on our psychological and physical well-being.</b> <p/>Our connection to nature is deeply rooted in the history of our evolution. And yet, we have less contact with green space now than ever, and our stress and anxiety levels are at an all-time high. The Secret Therapy of Trees helps us rediscover the restorative value of our natural environment and presents the science behind green therapies like forest bathing and bioenergetic landscapes, explaining which are the most effective and how to put them into practice to achieve the best possible results. <p/>Studies have shown that increased exposure to green space can result in a regulated heartbeat, lowered blood pressure, reduced aggressiveness, improved memory skills and cognitive function, and a healthier immune system. Just one visit to a forest can bring positive effects (hint: monoterpenes, the natural essential oils in plants, have numerous positive effects on health), and even a mindful walk through a semi natural park can alleviate physical and psychological stress. <p/>With multiple studies backing its findings and thorough explanations for each technique, The Secret Therapy of Trees is a treasure trove of tips on how to harness the regenerative power of plants and reconnect with our planet's natural spaces, bringing us health and happiness. <p/>You'll also discover: <br>* Which plants purify the environment at home and in the office<br>* The benefits of negative ions and where to find them<br>* How to recharge through contact with trees<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>MARCO MENCAGLI has a degree in agronomy and has been working in the field for over twenty-five years.
