Natural Environments and Human Health
The role natural environments play in human health and wellbeing is attracting increasing attention. There is growing medical evidence that access to the natural environment can prevent disease, aid recovery, tackle obesity and improve mental health. This book examines the history of natural environments being used for stress-reduction, enjoyment, aesthetics and catharsis, and traces the development of the connection between humans and the environment, and how they impact our personal and collective health.
Health and Natural Landscapes
Natural landscapes are intricately tied to human health and well-being. While contemporary lifestyles have caused people to feel disconnected from the natural environment, this relationship is now recognized as vitally important, with landscapes increasingly valued for their stress-reduction, aesthetic, and restorative benefits. Providing an overview of the history, theoretical concepts, and individual and societal implications of human connection to natural landscapes, this book considers natural landscapes' role as an antidote to our modern, predominantly urban society.
52 Ways to Walk
'Fascinating ... Connected both to old wisdom and new scientific frontiers of discovery' Lauren Laverne ________________________ 'We can all learn something from 52 Ways to Walk. I know I can.' Michael Ball, BBC Radio 2 ________________________ Walking strengthens our bodies, calms our minds and lifts our spirits. But it does so much more than this. Our vision, hearing, respiration, sleep, cognition, memory, blood pressure, sense of smell and balance are all enhanced by how we walk. For instance: · Walking in cold weather burns extra fat and builds more muscle. · Walking alone strengthens our memories. · Walking in woodland helps us sleep. · And there's nothing more restorative than a ro...
Sustainability and the City
Sustainability and the City: Urban Poetics and Politics contributes to third-generation discourse on sustainable development by considering, through a humanistic lens, theories and practices of sustainability in a wide range of urban cultures. It demonstrates cities’ inextricability from discussions on sustainability because not only is the world urbanizing at an unprecedented rate but also cities are primary locations of the circulation of excess capital, socioeconomic divisions and hierarchies, political resistance, friction between human and non-human worlds, and the confluence of art, policy, and identity formation in placemaking. With essays by scholars working in a variety of fieldsâ...

Sul camminare
Tra scienza, esperienza personale e ricerca, Sul camminare è una guida alle infinite possibilità del muoversi. Scegliendo 52 esempi, idealmente uno a settimana, Annabel Streets scopre con il lettore cosa succede a corpo, mente e spirito se i piedi si mettono in moto. Incamminarsi nel fango stimola la serotonina, affrontare il vento accelera il metabolismo, passeggiare con un animale domestico accresce l'autostima, e questi sono solo alcuni dei tanti benefici che ogni camminata, sia essa veloce, in solitaria, lungo un fiume, a piedi nudi o in salita, porta con sé. I 52 capitoli si trasformano in altrettanti suggerimenti per ritrovare una nuova consapevolezza sul movimento perché quasi tutto, a quanto pare, può essere migliorato e potenziato camminando in modo intelligente e consapevole, e perché si può ottenere di più dalla vita, facendo un passo alla volta. Se camminare aggiunge molto alle nostre vite, questo libro aggiunge molto al camminare.
