Garden therapy
Swedish title: Trädgårdsterapi
The way back from exhaustion syndrome goes through the garden!

The road back to a normal life after suffering from exhaustion syndrome can be long and difficult. But through the Alnarp method – a gardening therapy treatment with a world-wide reputation – many of those affected have managed to get to grips with their lives once again, and in 12 weeks have returned to their work and studies.

In the midst of splendid vegetable plots, colourful flower gardens and snug greenhouses, participants have the chance to experience the calming, strengthening and healing effects of the garden and of nature itself.

Anyone who has suffered from a stress-related illness knows how difficult it is to recover. This book also provides inspiration for those who have not had this experience to spend some calming time in the garden at home, or in the local park or forest. We should not allow the garden to become another source of stress, but instead we should let it trigger an internal calming system, helping us to prevent stress before it happens, and to wind down.
