"The Japanese practice of forest bathing, shinrin-yoku, changes the levels of stress and pleasure hormones in the body, decreasing cortisol and increasing serotonin. Tree collectors know this. And if being around one tree feels good, their thinking goes, imagine how a hundred trees would feel. In her first botanical nonfiction in more than a decade, Amy Stewart brings us on a captivating tour of tree collectors around the world asking: what drives one to collect something as enormous, majestic, and deeply-rooted as a tree? In her gentle, intimate, slyly humorous way, Stewart brings these people to life, organizing their stories into categories. There are the community builders--like Shyam Sunder Paliwal who, after the death of his daughter, began a movement in his Rajasthan village to plant 111 trees whenever a girl was born--who do the remarkable work of knitting people together under an arboreal canopy. There are seekers who have taken their passion for trees around the world, or even into space. There are visionaries--the former poet laureate, W.S. Merwin, who planted a tree a day for over three decades, until he had turned a barren estate into a palm sanctuary. And there are healers--like Joe Hamilton, who plants trees on land passed down to him by his formerly enslaved great-grandfather--who have found a way to heal their own lives, the lives of others, or even wounds of the past, by planting trees"--

Naturens cirkel – sådan forbinder du dig til naturen er en fagbog af Doreen Møller Holmquist. Doreen Møller Holmquist inviterer dig på en rejse igennem årets 12 måneder, hvor vi blandt andet, vil fokusere på sansernes påvirkning i naturen, shamanisme, vintertræthed, urter, terapihave og skovbadning. Hvordan du kan afkoble og genoplade i naturen og få den balance tilbage, som du mangler. På den måde får du mindre stress og vil derfor blive bedre til at mærke dig selv og dine behov.Undgå stress – Mød naturenFormålet med Naturens cirkel er, at lokke flere ud i naturen eller deres haver på nye måder og derved hjælpe dem med at føle sig forbundet med naturen. Nutildags flytter mange mennesker til storbyerne og lever derfor ikke i overensstemmelse med naturens rytme. Hver dag er 35.000 danskere sygemeldt med stress (ifølge stressforeningen). Og WHO siger, at stress bliver dette årtis store folkesygdom.Doreen tror, at stress og flere af vores livsstils sygdomme skyldes, at vi er kommet for langt væk fra vores naturlige forbundethed til naturen. Denne bog er hendes bidrag til at modvirke den stress vi har i Danmark. Bogen gennemgår alle årets måneder. Så man får et indblik i hver måneds energi og charme.Bryd hamsterhjulet“Jeg kunne ønsker mig en verden, hvor vi bryder så meget med hamsterhjulet som vi kan og prioriterer tid i naturen.”I bogen foreslår hun masser af ideer til det og håber, at det vil lokke læseren derud og at disse naturfrirum vil give læseren glæde og overskud til at tænke og være kreativ. Doreen forestiller sig at det vil være en spændende verden, der ville komme ud af det. En verden, der er befolket af kreative, harmoniske og mere autentiske mennesker.Følges bogen måned for måned igennem hele bogen, kan læseren gennemgå en selvudvikling.

"Discover the healing power of Mother Earth through the act of grounding. Let nature and Dr. Sinatra be your guide to a happier, healthier life. Nature has been the world's most acclaimed healer since the beginning of time, with time-tested references to its ability to heal body, mind, and soul, dating to the earliest civilizations. For thousands of years, traditional indigenous medicine from Mother Earth has been used to promote health and wellbeing for millions of Native peoples. The use of native plants and contact with the Earth for healing purposes was commonplace for centuries from ancient Asia to the early Americas. In Europe, ancient Roman troops were reported to have walked upon hallowed ground after battle to receive healing energy from the Earth. Recent scientific findings and clinical studies link grounding with relief for health issues like: Heart disease Sleep disorders Inflammatory conditions Depression & anxiety Attention disorders Get Grounded, Get Well offers readers the secret to better health through grounding. Grounding, the simple act of connecting to the always-abundant, nourishing energy of the Earth's surface, has been scientifically and medically proven through numerous studies to have significant positive effects on our physiology. It helps to restore energy, heighten feel-good endorphins, improve circulation, calm heart rates, alleviate stress, and help ensure a better night's sleep, returning the body to a naturally balanced state of homeostasis the way nature intended. It also reduces inflammation-the culprit behind rising health problems today, including heart disease, arthritis, diabetes, high blood pressure, chronic pain, and even cancer. "--
