In Japan, doctors prescribe people to visit forests, also called 'forest bathing' or "shinrin-yoku."
Shinrin-yoku is a practice that aims to improve mental and physical health. It involves walking in forested areas to reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and boost the immune system.
Originating in the 1980s, shinrin-yoku has become a popular form of health care.
