About the section: Nature and Herbs
The Nature section explores plants, ecosystems, and ways to enjoy the outdoors — from what studies reveal about the forest's impact on stress, to growing herbs on your balcony, and observing wildlife and lunar phases. Six research articles include a 'What Science Says' section along with sources.
We distinguish observations and research from symbolic traditions: The Book of Herbs and granny's recipes describe the uses of plants, highlighting those with scientific validation.
