Many studies have explored the physiological and psychological benefits of the Japanese nature therapy practice of "shinrin-yoku," known in the West as forest bathing. This review article has narrowed its focus to include the most recent literature about the beneficial effects of forest bathing on heart rate variability, expressed as an increase in InHF, indicating activation of the parasympathetic nervous system and also its effect on reducing anxiety.
许多研究探讨了日本自然疗法“森林浴”(在西方被称为forest bathing)的生理和心理益处。这篇综述文章缩小了其关注范围,纳入了关于森林浴对心率变异性有益影响的最新文献,心率变异性以高频功率增加来表示,这表明副交感神经系统被激活,以及其对减轻焦虑的影响。
