Abstract:

This paper discusses the idea of the "healing landscape," showing how the combination of nature and carefully considered design can promote healing and well-being. The healing landscape becomes apparent as a crucial element in tackling life's issues as a result of the increasing awareness of the significant influence that environmental elements have on both physical and mental health. Healing landscapes are intentionally created spaces that combine human creativity with natural factors to provide therapeutic advantages. They offer areas for rest, renewal, and getting back in touch with nature. This paper explores the research underlying the importance of healing landscapes in promoting well-being, as well as the fundamental ideas and practices that help their design.

Abstract:

Poetry has immense potential to soothe the senses and heat the wounds. Through poetry, mental health and peace of mind can be maintained with pace immeasurable. The waves of passion that runs through poet’s sensibility, soothes the senses of the readers. Poetry reading, writing and listening casts good therapeutic effects. Poetry provides peace, calmness, and comfort to the minds by elevating mood in distress and duress. Studies show that poetry therapy proves a boon to patients suffering from serious ailments and augment their emotional resilience and brings joy in their life. Our brains are electrified with rhyme and rhythm of the poetry to give emotional reaction to joy and sadness both. Like sweet melody of music, poetry heals our emotional hurts. The metaphors embellish the poetic lines with magical brilliance, and they glitter with astute meaning and message. Diction plays a very emphatic role in discerning poet’s leanings. Reflection, perception and attachment are interwoven in diction so inextricably that they turn poet’s mouthpiece, and roar and rave with perfect resonance to poetic experiences. Through the intoxicated taken-for- grantedness of the laidback reading public will take somersault by the melody of the tone and exquisiteness of diction. The paper, however, explores how poetry can be a natural tool to heal mental stress, trauma, and agony and maintain mental health well. We will examine some poetic utterances of great romantic poet William Wordsworth and see how they can be a tool to heal the emotional hurts and wounds. Moreover, we will too examine that how the nature can extend peace, purpose, poise to mind.

Abstract:

Love for nature is one of the perennial characteristics perceived in Romantic poetry. English Romantic poets employ nature as an influential theme in their poetry: however their treatment of nature does not sound to be similar. This article aims at differentiating English Romantic poets preferential treatment of nature succinctly by including ten poems of five noted English Romantic poets, namely Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Shelley and Keats. This article concludes that nature for Wordsworth is a sort of God or Goddess for Coleridge it is an expression of the mystical power for Byron it is a reï¬‚ection of mankind for Shelley it is a healing power and for Keats it is a source of sensuousness inflaming sensual pleasures.

Abstract:

This research aims to show the ability of nature to heal mental and physical of children that shown on The Secret Garden written by Frances Hudgson Burnett. The relation of nature and human in this novel are captured on the characters experience the transformation from illness to wellness when interact to the nature in the garden. We might should realize that the main function of literature is not only to entertain but also to teach us how important nature to human. In this case the writer uses qualitative methods and applies eco-criticism to explain how close the relation between nature and human. It means that human and nonhuman have benefited each other and it reflects on how nature or space can be the media of mental and physical healing, and healing power of nature is portrayed in this novel. The writer focuses on: 1) the relation between nature and human, 2) Nature as a media of mental and physical healing to the children depict on the novel interact with space and experience the goodness of nature.

Abstract:

Literary analysis tends to be conceptual and top-down driven. Data-driven analysis, although it belongs more to the domain of scientific method, can nevertheless sometimes reveal elements of narrative that conceptual readings may fall short of identifying. In critiques of Burnett's The Secret Garden, the children's return to health is generally understood to be the result of their interactions with nature. Some readings add the power of storytelling as a healing force in the novel. Burnett's concept of magic has tended to be treated with uneasy abstractions, and the influence of affect on health remains open for further investigation. This article bases its argument on data-driven analysis that charts how affective content in the novel occurs in conjunction with references to magic. It identifies the narrative significance of negative allusions to nature and how concepts of magic occur alongside representations of positive affect, and suggests that the magic of healing in The Secret Garden is not the transforming power of biological nature, nor the transforming power of storytelling, but the transforming power of surprise, wonder and happiness in conjunction with all these factors. Positive affect represents the essence of what Burnett means by magic.

Full text

Abstract:

Book Fourteenth of The Prelude by William Wordsworth serves as a religious conclusion that signifies that a spiritual communion with God, infinite and transcendental and magnificently expressed by Nature, can heal and restore man’s mind in his crises of life. God’s being is a supreme Dasein, which in terms of essence is the Word/Logos, and which embraces the feature of “de-severance”, that is, eternity. And as a creator, God’s being-in-the-world is essentially caring. This article aims to employ hermeneutics to explicate the religious significance of Book Fourteenth, pointing out that Being housed in Logos is actually the healing power in life crises. I apply hermeneutics to explicate the theological significance of Book Fourteenth.

Resumo: Esta tese discute os processos saúde-doença a partir de enfoques diferenciados, ligados às vertentes terapêuticas atuantes no município de Ilhabela, SP. A maneira como cada terapeuta articula o conhecimento adquirido à sua prática de curar, traz a tona a questão da pluralidade cognitiva, reveladora de heterogêneas dimensões do ambiente incorporadas na saúde. Nesse aspecto, as vertentes terapêuticas se movimentam no interior de um amplo campo analógico que emerge das infinitas relações entre o ser-humano e a natureza, buscando soluções e metodologias das mais variadas para se alcançar a eficácia do tratamento, transcendendo a relação de causa e efeito linear. A partir do conceito de corporalidade, que remete à concepção do corpo como um feixe de relações que ultrapassam a cisão natureza/cultura, esta pesquisa se abre para a conexão do corpo com seu hábitat, pelo conceito de saúde ecossistêmica, buscando integrar à compreensão da saúde humana, a esfera socioambiental. Almejando contribuir para o debate aberto pelas discussões atuais em saúde e ambiente, a tese procurou dar conta da elaboração de uma dimensão orgânica - traduzida pelos processos históricos de urbanização e de degradação ambiental em Ilhabela, associados aos padrões saúde-doença mais evidenciados no município - até alcançar a dimensão simbólica - que remete às analogias recuperadas pelas diferentes vertentes terapêuticas - para, dessa maneira, pensar os processos de cura como resultado de uma interação saudável do ser humano com seu meio, abrindo perspectivas para a discussão da sustentabilidade a partir desses pressupostos.
Abstract: This thesis discusses the processes of health and disease from different methodological approaches related to therapeutic aspects in Ilhabela, SP. The way each therapist articulates their knowledge to their practice of healing, brings up the question of cognitive diversity, evidence of heterogeneous dimensions of the environment in health. The therapeutic aspects move within a broad field that emerges from the analog infinite relations between human beings and nature, looking for solutions to a variety of methodologies to achieve the effectiveness of treatment, going beyond the relationship of cause and linear effect. Based on the concept of corporality, which refers to the conception of the body as a series of relationships that go beyond the separation of nature/culture, this research opens the connection to the body with its habitat, the concept of ecosystem health, seeking to integrate the understanding of human health, the socioenvironmental sphere. Willing to contribute to the debate initiated by the current discussions in health and environment, this thesis was focused for the development of an organic imension - translated by historical processes of urbanization and environmental degradation in Ilhabela, associated with health and disease patterns more evident in the city - to reach the symbolic dimension - referring to the analogies recovered by the different therapeutic elements- in this way, think the healing process as a result of a healthy interaction of human beings and their environment, opening up the discussion of sustainability from these assumptions.

Abstract:

My thesis will discuss the historical pattern of mistreatment and misunderstanding of the chronically mentally ill and the continued struggle the population faces. I believe that architecture holds some of the answers for these issues concerning the "ill" and that environmental factors do play a large part in the effective treatment of this population. It is my intention to design a facility where the chronically mentally ill can live and communicate freely without the stigma that has plagued them for so long. I will use the tools that social theory, philosophers such as Heidegger and the concepts of phenomenology have given me to explore the question: how can architecture help heal the chronically mentally ill.

Abstract:

This dissertation explores entanglements of body, national identity and nature in contemporary Mongolia. The project is situated within the rising popularity of natural remedies and alternative medicine during a time described as disorganized (zambaraagui) and disorderly. Data was collected from 33 months of fieldwork in Ulaanbaatar and elsewhere, focused on non-biomedical practices and therapeutic landscapes, especially medicinal springs (arshaan) and their sanatoria. This work contributes to studies of post-socialist Mongolia in a few ways. The methodological decision to engage in interview and participant observation of fortunetellers (üzmerch), practitioners of Buddhist and traditional medicine (otoch, ardiin emch), astrologists (zurhaich), energy healers (bio energich), shamans (böö, zairan, udgan), enlightened lamas (huvilgaan) and massage therapists (bariach) was driven by the fluid approach with which patients approach fulfilling the needs of their health and wellbeing. Such fluidity was also echoed in healing practice; as opposed to bounded by strict conceptual distinctions, healers re-purposed personally and culturally-familiar techniques, ranging from biomedical to those of Buddhist medicine (sowa rigpa) to occult practices. Many of the same techniques were practiced by a range of practitioners. The term orthopraxy, commonality of practice across conceptual difference, is used to address this phenomena. Such pairing together of different kinds of therapies – biomedical or otherwise – calls into question a “traditional” vs. modern or neo-spiritual framework within which such practices are often cast. I employ Robbin’s anthropology of discontinuity (2003), suggesting that Soviet influences represented “hard” cultural forms that provided a partial rupture in cultural knowledge between pre-revolutionary society and 1990. Nature (baigal) and natural surroundings (baigal orchin) were concepts often raised when discussing health and wellbeing. “Spiritual” earth and mountain masters (gazariin/uuliin ezed) of estranged homelands (nutag) that cause illness in families relocated to Ulaanbaatar; the water, flora, and mutton from one’s homeland as especially medicinally-suited to the body; shamans empowered to heal by appropriating into their practices the worship of nationally-significant mountains: territorialized national identity represented a prominent trend in healing practices. The revering of a nation through natural landmarks I call national nature, and suggest it be seen both with respect to romantic and utilitarian conceptions of a therapeutic nature that underpinned Soviet medicine, and Soviet indigenization campaigns and the ethnonationalism that was encouraged to flourish in borderland republics. Affective rooting to natural landmarks to maintain or restore wellbeing was also a way to enact Mongol-ness, rendering healing the body at once a practice of national subject-making.

Abstract:

In this study, I explored how nature writing could be seen as healing text. I described some common problems associated with the construction of trauma and grief narratives and examined how nature writers dealt with them. The study began with my frustration at being unable to write a healing narrative for myself and progressed as I integrated research that informed my own writing. The literature I read included a variety of perspectives, from Jungian and traditional psychotherapy to current writing theory. I used the theory to comment on the nature writing texts as I discovered them. Using the words and stories of nature writers to fuel my own, I explored how their writing was both personally reflective and socially aware. In particular, I examined the importance of the natural world as a significant "other" for the writers and analyzed how their relationship with nature brought meaning and solace to their grieving.

Abstract:

AbstractWe explore environmental cognition, personality traits, social norms, environmental stress, and the healing environment. Cognition is the learning process of identifying the light, sound, smell, and feel of the space around us and then forming concepts of what we sense and then create visual images in our minds of what we are perceiving. This then allows us to respond appropriately to stimuli and what we believe to be true. Therefore, we review the cognitive theory of environmental learning and then move to an exploration of the social theory associated with environmental learning and our understanding of nature. The use of different epistemological methods gradually unlocks the influencing factors of environmental behaviors, such as personality traits and social norms with the objective of explaining socialbehavior. Finally, by understanding environmental stress, it becomes apparent that humanity needs redemption and healing through the power of nature, including nourishment of phytoncide, vitamin D, and the exposure to of outdoorenvironments such as forests and oceans to reduce stress. This then helps restore our physical and mental health and strengthens our thinking and decision-making processes.

Abstract:

Tendon and ligament injuries present a considerable socioeconomic impact as close to 50% of the 32 million musculoskeletal injuries in the US per year include these structures [1]. The inadequate healing in these tissues requires novel treatment modalities. Improving tendon tissue engineering dictates that we better understand the process of natural adult tendon healing. Type-I (Col1) and Type-II (Col2) collagens are important structural proteins in tendon as Col1 is the main collagen type found in the tendon midsubstance while Col2 is expressed at the insertion into bone during development, growth, and healing [2–3]. Expression of Col1 and Col2 has typically been analyzed via qPCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) during healing. However, the temporal expression of these genes is still poorly understood on a cell-by-cell basis. Our lab has previously studied patellar tendon (PT) healing in NZW rabbits [4]. While the NZW rabbit allows for controlled injuries and accurate biomechanical assessment of healing, it lacks the genetic power that is offered in the mouse. Therefore, pOBCo13.6GFPtpz (Col1) and pCol2ECFP (Col2) double transgenic (DT) reporter mice were created to track spatiotemporal gene expression. Thus, the objectives of this study were to monitor changes in: 1) spatiotemporal Col1 and Col2 gene expression patterns, 2) tissue morphology, and 3) healing biomechanics following a full-length, central PT injury in Col1/Col2 DT mice and to compare these natural healing results to contralateral surgical shams and normal PT in age-matched controls.

Abstract:

The high level of anxiety leads to the developing and progression of somatic diseases. The problem of correcting anxiety states for people who suffer from somatic diseases has become especially relevant during the period of pandemic. Throughout the development of a short-term option for anxiety correction, it was important for us to see if this method could be used as a way of self-help. We relied on the principles of healing mechanism of the Creative Self-Expression Therapy (CSE) by M.E. Burno. This mechanism is about the impact of emotional stress on a person with the activation of protective and adaptive systems of the body. The main features of the course of correction of anxiety for people with somatic diseases are: the possibility of remote application; the short duration of the course; avoiding the actualization of psycho-traumatic experiences to exclude provocation of somatic symptoms; simplification of the methodology of creative therapy to facilitate the assimilation of the techniques; the examination of the difference in attitudes for further research of what is conformable with your soul; the examination of the features of constitutional (natural) vegetative reactions in representatives of different characters. The course of correction of the anxiety states with methods of creative self-expression includes six classes. During these classes, you can learn more about: psychosomatic disorders, constitutional features of characters as prerequisites for the emergence of psychosomatic disorders, the theory of stress by G.Selye and healing emotional stress; the healing power of creativity; the techniques of creative self-expression (healing psychotherapeutic diary, creative search for spirituality in everyday life, healing and creative communication with nature, creative photography). We also learn more about self-help techniques for anxiety states (progressive muscle relaxation, breathing exercises). Высокий уровень тревоги приводит к развитию и прогрессированию соматических заболеваний. Проблема коррекции тревожных состояний у лиц, страдающих соматическими заболеваниями стала особенно актуальной в период пандемии. При разработке краткосрочного варианта коррекции тревоги для нас было важно, чтобы данный подход мог применяться в качестве средства самопомощи. Мы опирались на целебный механизм Терапии творческим самовыражением М.Е. Бурно (ТТСБ) – воздействие эмоционального стресса на человека с активацией защитно-приспособительных систем организма. Особенностями курса коррекции тревожных состояний у лиц с соматическими заболеваниями являются: возможность дистанционного применения; краткосрочность курса занятий; избегание актуализации психотравмирующих переживаний для исключения провокации обострения соматических симптомов; упрощение методик терапии творчеством для облегчения усвоения приемов; изучение разницы в мироощущениях для дальнейшего поиска созвучного себе; изучение особенностей конституциональных (естественных) вегетативных реакций у представителей разных характеров. Курс коррекции тревожных состояний приемами творческого самовыражения включает в себя 6 занятий, на которых происходит знакомство с психосоматическими расстройствами; конституциональными особенностями характеров как предпосылками для возникновения психосоматических расстройств; с теорией стресса Г.Селье и целительным эмоциональным стрессом; с целебной силой творчества; с приемами творческого самовыражения (целебный психотерапевтический дневник, творческий поиск одухотворенности в повседневном, целебно-творческое общение с природой, творческое фотографирование). Проводится обучение приемам самопомощи при тревожных состояниях (прогрессивная мышечная релаксация, дыхательные упражнения).

Abstract:

The article presents the results of the analysis of energy, socio-economic and geospheric resources of the mountainous areas of the North Caucasus, shows promising ways of their use for the sustainable development of mountainous regions. The immediate tasks of the state and private commercial structures, other participants of the Mountain Partnership for the reasonable economic and other use of mountain resources are determined. Practical recommendations are given for maintaining the natural balance in the zone of mining and processing of ores. Much attention is paid to the issues of the negative impact of the surface complex of mountain objects and the accompanying infrastructure on the formation of qualitative indicators of the components of the biosphere. The curative and health-improving significance of the healing properties of the mountains is especially emphasized. The transformation of a natural landscape into a man-made one under the influence of a mining and processing complex is described. The perspective directions for the development of power supply to the population in mountainous areas with the use of local natural resources are shown. Recommendations are given to strengthen further large-scale innovative development of mountainous provinces, which will attract new tourists and vacationers from urban areas. This practice can be an example of borrowing solutions used in similar conditions both in Russia and foreign countries.

Abstract:

Concrete is a critical component of so much of the modern construction industry. This material, well known for its versatility, robustness, longevity, and strength, is well-suited for a wide range of structural applications. Nonetheless, the widespread occurrence of cracks in concrete structures, primarily attributed to its limited tensile strength, shrinkage, and overstain, imposes a considerable economic and environmental challenge when it comes to retrofitting these fissures. This study tackles this problem by harnessing bacteria tolerant to high alkaline conditions to enable Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (MICP) for the self-repair of concrete. This is achieved through an external application method, wherein bacteria are manually and externally applied to the cracks of the concrete surface. This report presents the results of testing three different bacterial species (Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus megaterium, and Sporosarcina pasteurii) to retrofit laboratory-manufactured cracks. The self-repaired groups underwent compressive load-to-failure testing and were compared to a control group (With Crack), revealing a notable increase in compressive strength ranging from 8.59% to 21.61%. The outcomes of the compressive strength tests illustrate the viability of implementing this technique for retrofitting concrete structures, showcasing its environmentally friendly nature and its ability to significantly enhance structural durability. This, in turn, has the potential to impact existing and future developments that incorporate concrete.

Abstract:

The decentralized nature of blockchain markets has given rise to a complex and highly heterogeneous market structure, gaining increasing importance as traditional and decentralized (DeFi) finance become more interconnected. This paper introduces the DeFi intermediation chain and provides theoretical and empirical evidence for private information as a key determinant of intermediation rents. We propose a repeated bargaining model that predicts that profit share of Ethereum market participants is positively correlated with their private information, and employ a novel instrumental variable approach to show that a 1 percent increase in the value of intermediaries’ private information leads to a 1.4 percent increase in their profit share.

Full text

Abstract:

Energy protests are becoming increasingly common and significant around the world. While in the global North concerns tend to centre around climate issues, in the global South the concerns are more often with affordable energy. Both types of protests, however, have one issue in common: the undemocratic nature of energy policymaking. This paper draws together findings from research conducted in three countries, Mozambique, Nigeria, and Pakistan to ask how and under which conditions do struggles over energy access in fragile and conflict affected settings empower the powerless to hold public authorities to account? In exploring this theme, the study examines what factors support protests developing into significant episodes of contention within fragile settings, and whether these energy struggles promote citizen empowerment and institutional accountability.

Full text

Abstract:

This paper explores Pakistan’s electricity supply crisis that lasted from 2007 to 2015, and the ensuing contention that shaped public discourse and political events in the country. During this period, which witnessed electricity outages of up to 14 hours per day, 456 incidents of contention took place, with just under 20 per cent escalating into some form of violence. Electricity became the number one political issue in the country and was integral in shaping the outcomes of the 2013 General Election. Following the election, public authorities undertook extensive investment to expand capacity and ensure consistency in supply while evading questions about affordability and sustainability. On the surface, this appears to be a case of extensive protest working towards shaping state responsiveness. And it is true that the state now sees supply as a non-negotiable aspect in the social contract with citizens. However, a range of factors contributed to the chronology and the selective, generation-focused nature of this response. On the other hand, citizen inclusion and participation in decision-making, and issues of affordability and sustainability, which impact vulnerable and disempowered groups the most, remain absent from the political and policy conversation around energy. This suggests that while protests were useful in generating a short-term response, their long-term legacy in empowerment related outcomes is less visible.

Abstract:

To achieve the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goal 7 “Clean and Affordable Energy”, the most economically viable option for servicing the part of the population that is too remote or for which the national grid extension is too expensive are distributed renewable energy solutions (DREs), that is, standalone solar home systems (SHSs), mini grids, and swarm gridsi. By 2030, more than 290 million people could be connected to mini grids. Following a top-down approach to electricity access, countries of the Global South, with support of international aid and development funding, are accelerating their national grid expansion. As the national grid reaches their customers, the private sector (DRE companies) is put at danger of having to either relocate their assets or abandon them. At the same time, the DRE end-user, reached by the national grid, faces several challenges due to being exposed to a double infrastructure. These challenges can be of technical and financial nature and are caused by the assets becoming abundant or needing additional equipment to be suitable for national grid and DREs. In our new paper we investigate a technically and economically viable solution for the co-existence of the national grid−a centralized infrastructure−with mostly decentralized, renewable energy infrastructure in Global South countries. At the intersection of these two electrification pathways the question arises if the two approaches can be integrated to the benefit of society by maintaining existing assets. We assume the technical link to be a bidirectional inverter and a battery representing the point of common coupling (PCC) between national grid and currently off-grid systems. We then suggest to apply a cost recovery approach to calculate the economic value of a community power purchase agreement (C-PPA) that allows the community to enter into a trade agreement with the national grid to export at a specified rate.

Full text

Abstract:

Fossil fuel power plants are complex systems containing multiple components that create extreme environments for the purpose of extracting usable energy. Failures in the system can lead to increased down time for the plant, reduction of power and significant cost for repairs. In the past, inspections and maintenance of the plant's superheater tubes has been predominantly manual, laborious, and extremely time consuming. This is due to the pipe's small diameter size (between 1.3 and 7.6 cm) and the coiled structure of the tubing. In addition, the tubes are often stacked close to each other, limiting access for external inspection. Detection of pipe degradation, such as increased levels of corrosion, creep, and the formation of micro-cracks is possible using standard non-destructive evaluation (NDE) methods, including ultrasonic, radiography and electromagnetic methods. However, when the access to the sub-systems is limited or the configuration of the structure is prohibitive, alternative methods are needed for deploying the NDE tools. This research effort considers a novel robotic inspection system for the evaluation of small pipes found in typical boiler superheaters that have limited access. The pipe crawler system is an internal inspection device that can potentially navigate through the entire pipe length using linear actuators to grip the walls and inch along the pipe. The modular nature of the system allows it to traverse through straight sections and multiple 90-degree and 180-degree bends. The crawler is also capable of providing visual inspections, ultrasonic thickness measurements, and generating inner diameter surface maps using LiDAR (light detection and ranging). Ultimately, the development of this robotic inspection tool can provide information regarding the structural integrity of key pipeline components in fossil fuel power plants that are not easily accessible

Abstract:

The distribution of power and wealth is a contentious issue of federalism in Iraq. It has caused major conflicts between the federal government and the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG), especially over the management of oil and gas. This paper aims to clarify the nature of those disputes and their possible solution through Elazar’s theory of collaborative federalism. After presenting the principal elements of collaborative federalism, it provides eight rationales for adopting collaborative approach in Iraq. The rationales are mainly examined in the context of managing oil and gas between the central government and KRG. The paper then discusses some potential challenges for changing the nature of federalism in Iraq from competitive to collaborative.

Abstract:

The city’s relationship with its margins in the context of how state affects the lives of the people has increasingly become an important site of research—especially how pressures of governance split the nature of power and violence of the state at the margins vis-à-vis the city—where the experience of the state and how it operates is starkly different from how it unfolds for the middle-classes of the city. Education in this context has been an under researched area.
