It reminds you that you live in a big world that is full of natural and outdoors beauty. No matter how large your problem seems, nature can welcome and ease it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>What is nature therapy?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nature therapy has many names, such as green therapy, ecotherapy, and horticulture therapy. It is a kind of therapy that involves engaging with nature and being in a green area with a trained therapist.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.apa.org\/monitor\/2020\/04\/nurtured-nature\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Healing with nature<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is an ancient popular tradition in Eastern cultures. People used to spend a long time in nature for meditation, relaxation, and therapeutic uses.\u00a0 Recently, it has been gaining popularity in science and Western countries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nature therapy includes many activities, such as:<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adventure therapy: hiking, and rafting.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gardening and farming: engaging with nature by planting is a therapeutic activity. It makes you feel control by being responsible for a living creature (the plant). This boosts your self-esteem and has a positive effect on your mental health.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Night activities: like watching stars.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wilderness therapy: includes activities done in groups, such as camping.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reduce stress and burnout with nature therapy<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People get used to everything; it is a fact that never changes.
