抱樹可能听起来有点奇怪，但人类尝试这种自然疗法却有很多年了。
1 To stay safe during the coronavirus pandemic， we have had to sacrifice（牺牲） many things we enjoy， including physical contact with others. Gone are handshakes， kisses and hugs.
2 Research has shown that humans need physical touch to stay mentally and physically healthy. Without it， many become lonely， sad and even sick. So， if you feel you need a hug， we know something you can safely put your arms around and hold close： A tree！
3 Tree hugging may sound a little strange. But humans have practiced forms of nature therapy for years. The Japanese practice of shinrin yoku is an example. Shinrin means forest in Japanese， and yoku is the Japanese word for bath. But no soap or water is needed for shinrin yoku. All that nature bathing requires is spending time in nature： listening to its sounds， breathing in its scent and connecting to its life force.
4 Recently， Israel has been promoting tree hugging on social media. The country s nature and parks agency is behind the public health campaign. Orit Steinfeld is marketing director for Israel s Apollonia National Park. “In this unpleasant coronavirus period，” she said， “we recommend people around the world to go out to nature， take a deep breath， hug a tree， express your love and get love.”
5 Inside the park， some visitors were glad to observe the official s advice and hug trees. Barbara Grant was one of them. “The most basic human need，” she said， “is for connection， for touching， for hugging.” Visitor Moshe Hazan came to the park to hug a tree. “We are not hugging too many people these days. Hugging a tree is quite a nice thing to do.”
6 Israel s tree hugging campaign is not the first of the pandemic. Iceland s Forest Service launched a similar effort in April. They advised everyone in the country to hug a tree for at least five minutes every day. Park officials cleared paths in the woods so that visitors could socially distance while they searched for that special tree.
7 “There are plenty of trees，” said a forest worker in the video. “There is no need for everyone to hug the same tree.”
