It is no surprise that the forest has been considered a place for escape, healing, and transformation since ancient times in many cultures. But it is only recently that modern science has proven what we always suspected: spending time in the forest can heal what ails you.
Furthermore, when you hug a tree, you release a hormone called oxytocin, known as the hormone of love 💗 and trust, which gives you that warm, fuzzy feeling 😊. So you don’t even need a whole forest, you just need one tree!
