These days, many Chinese young people have turned to trees to help with their stress. Although it sounds strange, there’s science behind the act of tree-hugging.

A study in 2021     1     (report) that the act of tree-hugging can increase oxytocin (催产素). It’s a hormone responsible for     2     (feel). The     3     (high) the level of oxytocin is, the calmer and happier you may be. Hugging trees for only 21 seconds can lead to     4     increase in oxytocin.

Another hormone     5     (call) cortisol (皮质醇) is a marker of stress. The brain produces more cortisol when the person is anxious, angry, or very sad. Hugging trees helps cut cortisol production,     6     makes us feel better.

Although the activity is     7     (help) to us, it’s important to keep in mind that we shouldn’t hurt nature while doing it. Trees often hold valuable ecosystems. Many small creatures live on the tree and they are too small to be seen. You may want to be gentle when hugging trees—just like how you hug a friend!

There are other ways to turn to nature to help with your stress, such as forest bathing     8     water healer. You can stand or sit     9     a forest and close your eyes to listen to all the sounds around you, or you can sit beside the water to     10     (simple) enjoy the sounds.

By now it’s almost common knowledge that spending time in nature is good for you. Areas with     1    (many) trees tend to be less polluted, so spending time there allows you to breathe easier. Spending time outdoors contributes to good health, with blood pressure and stress     2    (reduce), and seems to motivate people     3    (exercise) more.

A survey showed that people     4    spend 2 hours in nature — either all at once or totaled over several shorter     5    (visit) — were more likely to report good health and psychological well-being than those with no nature     6    (expose). Remarkably, the researchers found that less than two hours offered no significant benefits. The two-hour benchmark (临界值)     7    (apply) to men and women, to older and younger folks and so on. Even people    8    long-term illnesses or disabilities benefited from time     9    (spend) in nature — as long as it was at least 120 minutes per week.

While the findings are based on     10    tremendous number of people, scientists caution that it’s really just a correlation. Nobody knows why or how nature has this benefit or even if the findings will stand up to stricter investigation.
