The FOREST …. THE MIRACLE PILL … free of charge with us

“Biophilia effect” or simply put “forest bathing”

The forest is good for us, we feel that intuitively. But what was previously more of a feeling is now backed up by science. It explores the healing bond between humans and nature, which has a much stronger effect on us than we previously thought.



In short – a vacation in the forest has an effect:


  • Relax

    Reduction of the stress hormones cortisol and adrenaline (on the 2nd day already by 75% in women 😉 … in men by 35%)

  • Cool down

    Activation of the “vagus” (the nerve of rest and regeneration), which reduces breathing and heart rate and lowers blood pressure and blood sugar levels.

  • Who would have thought

    The number of killer cells (these are the defense units of our immune system that fight pathogens and potential tumor cells) is increased by 100% after just 2 days

  • There's something in the air

    Breathing in forest air has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, promotes brain function and lifts the mood

  • Calm returns

    Depression, anxiety and exhaustion decrease

  • There's no sin on the mountain pasture

    Human relationships are encouraged

  • Be good to birds

    Research shows that the more trees you see and the more birds you hear chirping, the happier you will be.



If your vacation home – like the chalets at LUXGUT – stands alone in the middle of the forest and also combines luxury with sustainability and nature, then it’s like hitting the jackpot when it comes to vacations.
