I liked learning/exploring this therapy as it is new to me. I can see myself using some principles of it during school-based sessions. Most of the invitations would go over my students' heads though, but I love the thought of getting them outside.

Very informative however does not truly take into consideration and practicality all of the challenges of patients who may be bed-bound with limited windows available in the room (ex. 4 patient beds in one room with a single window on one wall). Some patients are on upper floors where they may see only sky (no ground, trees, birds, etc). In those cases I assume video would be the solution, however then you have those in LTC facilities with impaired faculties (vision, hearing, ...).

Application to varied populations from pediatrics to geriatrics using nature - a resource available to everyone - in a variety of methods. The examples given for use with hospitalized patients who had access to a window, people in wheelchairs, and use of videos demonstrate how it can be incorporated in most settings.

Never heard of this area, yet it makes sense. i remember making chain necklaces from long stemmed weeds as a kid, hours sitting in the grass looking for 4 leaf clovers, and staring at the cloud formations. To this day, my soul craves to be outside and to breathe deeply. Has some great points.
