shinrin yoku

In this episode of The Modern Vital Podcast, the focus is on the Japanese practice of Shinrin yoku, or forest bathing. And the special guest is Dr. Cyndi Gilbert, a naturopathic doctor and author of the book, "Forest Bathing: Discovering Health and Happiness Through the Japanese Practice of Shinrin Yoku." Dr. Cyndi shares insights into the concept of forest bathing, which involves immersing oneself in nature, connecting with living things, and finding health and happiness in the process. Forest bathing is not a new idea and has been a part of indigenous cultures for ages. The practice has numerous benefits for physical and mental health, from improved immune system activity to reduced stress and better cognitive performance.

Dr. Cyndi emphasizes the importance of spending time outdoors and being surrounded by nature for better well-being. She discusses individualized prescriptions and suggests aiming for at least two hours of outdoor time per week. The episode also delves into the healing properties of nature, such as essential oils from trees that improve breathing and reduce inflammation. Dr. Cyndi encourages listeners to reconnect with the land, acknowledging that forest bathing can be a form of stewardship, leading to a more respectful and healthy relationship with the environment and its inhabitants.

Wir alle sind in unserem Alltag mit Stress konfrontiert und stellen uns oft die Frage, wie wir diesen senken oder seine Auswirkungen in einem gesunden Rahmen halten können.
Waldbaden könnte hier ein wirksames Mittel sein. Die im japanischen “Shinrin Yoku” genannte Aktivität, erlangt immer mehr Aufmerksamkeit in Wissenschaft und Forschung. Neben vielen Gesundheitsbenefits soll die natürliche Umgebung des Waldes auch messbar Stress reduzieren können. Inwiefern das möglich, messbar und für uns relevant ist, möchte ich dir in diesem Podcast erzählen.

“And into the forest I go to lose my mind and find my soul!” (John Muir, 1869)

Dieses Zitat von John Muir, einem der ersten Naturphilosophen und Naturschützer, beschreibt ein Gefühl, das wohl viele von Waldausflügen kennen. Die Leichtigkeit, Entspannung, Freude und vor allem auch Ablenkung, die wir im Wald finden, kann tatsächlich unsere Gesundheit unterstützen. 

In diesem Artikel geht es um die natürliche und gesunde Wirkung des Waldes auf uns Menschen. Wir blicken auch auf Japan, ein Land, in dem die Praxis des “Waldbadens” seit vielen Jahren erforscht wird. 

In dieser 8-teiligen Podcast Serie werde ich aber noch auf die gesundheitsfördernde Wirkung des “Waldbadens” eingehen. Wir profitieren körperlich, geistig und seelisch enorm von regelmäßigen Waldspaziergängen, das kann ich bereits verraten.

Phil & Jake are joined by dear old pal Chon Travis (from Love Equals Death) to rank cops, strip clubs that serve food, and the activity known as forest bathing on the List of Every Damn Thing.

Find Chon on Instagram (@therealchontravis) and Facebook (chon.travis), and check out his band Love Equals Death (follow that link to find out their show dates)!

If you have something to add to the list, email it to list@everydamnthing.net (or get at us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook).

SHOW NOTES:

• The Cops television show was a reality TV show in which a camera crew followed police around. The police departments got final approval of what was included in the show but it was educational to see what police thought made them look good. 
• District Attorneys are adjacent to cops, but aren't exactly cops.
• Training Day is a movie about Denzel Washington as a bad cop.
• Columbo is TV good cop who is completely non-violent and walks around being an unassuming disheveled genius and catching rich people who do murders.
• Lethal Weapon is a movie about two cops, one of whom is a "Lethal Weapon" because he's suicidal.
• Die Hard is a movie about an off-duty cop and an on-duty cop (who shot a child while on duty) learning to trust each other.
• Beverly Hills Cop a movie about a cop from Detroit who goes to Beverly Hills and puts a banana in the tailpipe of cops there.
• Movie cops are always good or at least necessary.
• England is a country where cops don't carry guns.
• We discuss gun ownership. In the USA, 3 in 10 adults say they own a gun. It's something like 40% of men and 20% of women.
• RoboCop is another movie about cops in which the police force has been privatized. It's fantastic and Ronny Cox from Beverly Hills Cop is fantastic in it as Dick Jones.
• The Pinkertons were founded as a sort of private police force to crush labor.
• Rod Lavers shoes are Adidas sneakers named for the great Australian tennis star Rodney Laver. The Australian Open is played in an arena named for him as well. They're fantastic shoes but the best ones are white and it's hard to keep them clean.
• Firefighters are people who fight fire. When Phil imagined a fire that hated firefighters he was thinking of a little stinker like this guy.
• Clowns are people trying to make other people laugh.
• Commandos are special military units.
• Theodore Roosevelt was a US President and an extremely colorful character who's personally responsible for a lot of death and pain. 
• The Last Starfighter was a nice little movie that's somehow never been remade. It's about a kid in a trailer park who, by virtue of being good at video games, gets recruited into an interstellar war.
• Howard the Duck is a movie about a duck who falls in love with Lea Thompson.
• Capitalism is the system we live in that makes ethical consumption impossible.
• Middle school is a necessary evil, a place to put young teens.
• Gambit is a fictional character, a superhero and member of the X-men. He wears a long trench coat and a weird thing on his head.
• Hoarders is a TV show in which the pain and mental illness of real people is mined for cheap thrills. 
• Steven Seagal is a movie star who's been credibly accused of sexual assault and has incredibly accused himself of being a yogi, a holy man, a secret agent, a Navy SEAL & a martial arts master.
• The British Royal Family are pretty bad.
• Jon Voigt had been really good in a lot of films. He's as low as he is almost entirely because he said some stuff Phil & Jake didn't agree with. Phil even liked his accent in Anaconda.
• Jenny McCarthy is pretty low on the list because she has some trash opinions.
• 48 Hrs. was followed by a sequel, Another 48 Hours. The second sequel, 127 Hours, is a big departure for the franchise.
• Flashdance is probably underrated by us. Karina Longworth went into why in a recent episode of You Must Remember This.

ALSO DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE:
Insane Clown Posse * speed limits * Hank Williams, Jr. * jorts * Bell Biv Devoe * mini-trucks * Warner Brothers large-graphic cartoon t-shirts * water parks * “Mambo No. 5 (A Little Bit of…)” by Lou Bega * Spinderella * Bend, OR * Mendocino County * moongazing * meditation * backpacking * Spice Girls * Pee-Wee Herman * Donald Duck * goats

I love the outdoors, the quiet, the smell and the peacefulness.

The Japanese have a word for this Shinrin-Yoku which roughly translates to forrest bathing. It has been shown to lower blood pressure, improve your immunity and decrease stress.

Use your senses to embrace everything around you - listen with your ears, look with your eyes, smell with your nose, use your mouth to taste the fresh air and feel with your hands and feet.

This mind-blowing chat with eco-therapist Stefan Batorijs shines a light on both the physical and psychological health benefits of spending time in the forest. We explore the Japanese art of Shinrin Yoku, which translates as 'Forest Bathing', and disappear into the woods ourselves, discovering some surprising truths about how our bodies and minds react to the environment we long ago evolved in.
