He explains the science behind each one, from how direct contact with the earth may improve blood flow and reduce inflammation, to how breathing in the aromatic compounds from trees can strengthen your immune system, to why morning sunlight is the single most important signal your body needs to regulate sleep, hormones, and mood.
