Summary 
Discover a slow, mindful way of walking that heals the soul and mends the heart -- and let all your senses bathe in the pleasures that the forest has to offer. Heal yourself by connecting deeply with nature. Fill your lungs with fresh forest air, which has cancer-fighting chemicals called phytoncides that can lower blood pressure, decrease levels of stress, and reduce muscle tension. With 75 inspirational quotes, this guide teaches you how to benefit from what the Japanese call "the medicine of the forest" by leaving the hustle and bustle behind and soaking up the silence. Through focusing on the things you see and hear, staying aware of your environment, and being present in the moment, you'll improve your health and well-being.

Summary 
El Baño de bosque, conocido con el término Shinrin Yoku en la cultura japonesa, es una plácida práctica meditativa que nos conecta con la naturaleza y su enorme potencial sanador. Aunque siempre podemos disfrutar de un baño de bosque con fines lúdicos, la práctica consciente del Shinrin Yoku, experimentada plenamente a través de los cinco sentidos, ejerce un asombroso efecto benéfico sobre la salud física, emocional y mental. Los sorprendentes estudios científicos que constituyen la base de esta obra muestran cómo la práctica del Shinrin Yoku fortalece el sistema inmune, gracias al pacificador efecto que ejerce previamente sobre el sistema nervioso parasimpático, y reduce los niveles de cortisol, una hormona directamente relacionada con el estrés. También nos descubren el apasionante papel de las fitoncidas, compuestos secretados por los árboles de forma natural cuando se sienten amenazados, objeto de estudio por parte de la comunidad científica por su curioso poder destructor de algunos agentes patógenos que constituyen una amenaza para la vida humana. No hay nada como la naturaleza para reconectar con nosotros mismos. Cuando nuestra vida se aleja de los ciclos naturales, nuestra fuerza vital disminuye. Afortunadamente, el antídoto está tan cerca de ti como el espacio silvestre que tengas más cerca de casa.
