1-Minuten-Habit für 16. Juli
Press a leaf between your palms
Warum dieses Habit hilft
Tactile connection with plants triggers biophilia—our innate human affinity for nature—reducing stress hormones.
The texture and scent of leaves contain phytochemicals that subtly elevate mood.

Kurz erklärt
Japanese forest therapy (shinrin-yoku) emphasizes tactile plant contact. Even brief touches can lower cortisol.
Unlike visual nature appreciation, this engages your body's largest sensory organ—your skin.
So kannst du sofort starten
- Find a fresh, clean leaf (avoid toxic plants like poison ivy).
- Cup it between both palms and apply gentle pressure.
- Notice temperature, texture, and any released fragrance.
- Optional: Close your eyes to heighten other senses.
