- BackgroundStress-related illness is increasing and is a common cause of sick leave. Spending time in nature have a positive effect on health and well-being for instance by reducing stress. Specific programmes with nature-based interventions (NBI) with the intention to involve people in activities in a supportive natural environment have been developed for people with stress-related illness.AimTo identify and summarise scientific studies of NBIs to promote health for people with stress-related illness.MethodThe design used in this study is integrative literature review. Scientific studies focusing on any type of NBI for people with stress-related illness were sought in Cinahl, PubMed, PsycInfo, AMED and Scopus. In total, 25 studies using both qualitative and quantitative designs were included in the review.ResultThe reviewed studies focused on garden or forest interventions. In the majority of the studies, NBIs were performed in groups, including individual activities, and the length of programmes varied. Interventions in natural environments have unique qualities for individualised, meaningful activities and interactions with others in a non-demanding atmosphere. NBIs offer restoration that reduces stress, improves health and well-being and strengthen self-efficacy and work ability. Connectedness with nature support existential reflections and people with stress-related illness can achieve balance in everyday life.ConclusionIn conclusion, NBIs may have advantages to promote health for people with stress-related illness and should therefore be considered as an alternative to those affected. Further research from different perspectives, including nursing, is needed to understand the possibilities of NBIs and how they can be integrated into practice.
