The Healing Code Of Nature

Human beings are inseparable from the natural world, coevolving with all of life. In order to thrive, we need to nourish this bond. In his latest book, biologist Clemens G. Arvay illuminates the miraculous ways that the human body interprets the living "code" of plants, animals, and our larger natural habitat for healing and sustenance.

Did you know that the sight of a tree activates the self-healing powers of a human being? Or that contact with friendly animals is proven to strengthen our immune system and help with recovery? Or that different natural landscapes hold unique healing properties? "People have been connected with plants, animals, and ecosystems over eons," writes Arvay. "Nature is full of influences and stimuli that are healthy for us when we open to them." The Healing Code of Nature is as inspiring as it is fascinating, offering readers a new vision for the future of medicine and the way we relate to our environment.
