The Nature Fix Zusammenfassung

The Nature Fix: Why Nature Makes us Happier, Healthier, and More Creative Florence Williams

For centuries, poets and philosophers extolled the benefits of a walk in the woods: Beethoven drew inspiration from rocks and trees; Wordsworth composed while walking over the heath; Nikola Tesla conceived the electric motor while visiting a park.

From forest paths in Korea to islands in Finland to eucalyptus groves in California, Florence Williams investigates the science at the confluence of environment, mood, health and creativity. Delving into new research, she uncovers the powers of the natural world to improve health, promote reflection and innovation, and strengthen our relationships. As our lives shift indoors, these ideas-and the answers they yield-are more urgent than ever.

The Nature Fix Bewertungen

A beautifully written, thoroughly enjoyable exposition of a major principle of human life now supported by evidence in biology, psychology, and medicine. -- Edward O. Wilson
The Nature Fix by Florence Williams is an ideal holiday pick too, chock-full of insights about the health benefits of spending time in nature. -- Rohan Silva, Summer Reads 2017 - The Guardian
... the author makes a compelling argument for time outdoors. She takes a refreshing approach, including 'forest bathing (the Japanese custom of a sensory walk in the woods); ecotherapy in Scotland; and how nature can produce the same effects as mind-altering drugs. Thought-provoking and excellent. -- BBC Wildlife Magazine
... impassioned and thorough exploration of nature's impact on our bodies, psyches and creativity... -- The Irish Examiner
