Mother Nature, with her vast landscapes and intricate ecosystems, is the lifeblood of our planet. She provides us with the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat. Trees play a crucial role in keeping environmental balance by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, thus combating climate change and purifying the air.
Beyond their environmental benefits, trees significantly impact our well-being. Engaging with nature through practices such as “forest bathing” or “shinrin-yoku” in Japan, involves immersing oneself in a forest environment and connecting with nature through all senses. Studies have shown that spending time in nature, especially around trees, can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and improve mood. The simple act of touching a tree can ground us, providing a sense of stability and connection to the earth.
