I'm a PhD candidate, funded by the China Scholarship Council starting Nov 2023, specializing in nature-based interventions and their intersection with psychological and spiritual well-being.
A central theme in my next work involves investigating how nature's restorative benefits can serve as an intervention for problematic human-computer interactive behaviors, such as internet addiction.
