Trees do feel and help us more than we can imagine. Knowing this now, it's not so fiction to think that they might actually make us feel happier and may even awake our full senses.

This is what they discovered: "They found that men who walked through a forest for a total of 6 hours over 2 days eperienced a 46% spoke in their blood levels of natural killer cells, which are part of your body's SWAT team against invading viruses. Apparently, all trees release airborne chemicals called phytoncides that not only proptest their foliage from microbes, but also help to stimulate our own immunity systems."

    • This is very good. I am adding this to the Nature, Wildlife, and Pets group. Everyone who has a submission that will uplift Nature, praise our wildlife, and/or you have pets that do special things or are special in a good way, share with us. As this addition praises the forest.

    • (above, I am extremely allergic to this "weed" or "grass" too)

      I can offer living proof that all trees release airborne chemicals called phytoncides that not only proptest their foliage from microbes, but also help to TORMENT MY our own immune system."

      I am extremely allergic to the every tree, every kind of grass, all dust, cats, dogs, horses, and everything else they tested me for except... water I think.

    • there are known metaphysical attributes to the many facets of nature, from something as small as grass to as large as the weather and winds, these things affect us in ways both unknown and unknown. If you doubt these things research the metaphysical traits of rocks and plants and the concepts of Eastern Medicine
