The Healing Effect of the Forest in Integrative Therapy Summary

The Healing Effect of the Forest in Integrative Therapy: With Numerous Exercise Examples for Practice by Astrid Polz-Watzenig

The healing effects of the forest in integrative therapy are the focus of this book. Special emphasis is placed on teaching active forest life exercises that can be used in therapeutic practice in individual and group settings. In addition, the application as a prescription in the context of therapeutic interventions is demonstrated and the importance of increasing the inclusion of forest life in the case history is clarified. The attitude of complex mindfulness and lived integrative ecopsychosomatics open up possibilities of a care for the world in a time of alienation from nature with a simultaneous longing for nature; the commitment to the preservation of nature strengthens an experience of solidarity and is at the same time effective self-care.
