Nature based Therapy (NbT): Planned therapeutic techniques performed in natural settings and based on nature-human active participation and connection
"The intervention consists of a 5-week (35-day) conscious immersion treatment in a natural coastal urban environment, involving approximately three sessions per week of semi-structured walking and mindfulness exercises lasting 60 minutes. Following this, there will be a follow-up period that will end 5 weeks after the intervention has concluded (day 70). Participants will document and evaluate the therapy sessions at the location where the mindfulness exercises take place, using the mobile phone application App, a digital tool for assessing the environment and health. The aim is to integrate nature-based physical activity and relaxation sessions into daily life.~The intervention will be standardized as much as possible to allow comparison of the results with those from the other study centers in Salzburg (Vienna) and Padua (Italy)."
