Description

The healing effect of the lawn ground and the lavender field in the city park was verified according to a physiological and a psychological index. Blood pressure, pulse, and saliva amylase density were used for the physiological index, and the SD method was used as an impression evaluation for the psychological index. The blood pressure of the subject with high blood pressure fell when on the lawn and in the lavender field. However, the blood pressure of the subject with low blood pressure did not decreased further. On the lawn, the density of saliva amylase decreased. Moreover, the impression evaluation of "Settled down" and "Calm" was impressive on the lawn and the impressions of "It is interesting" and "It is pungent" were strong in the lavender field. When these results were synthesized, it was thought that the lawn could be evaluated as a place of "Rest", and the lavender field as a place of "Diversion of mind".
