In the September article “The uncertainty of COVID-19, second homes and suburbs<\/em>“<\/a><\/strong>, we discussed a conceptwe exposed a concept called healthy spaces.<\/strong> A house is considered healthy when it provides a healthy environment that offers comfort and promotes rest and relaxation, both physical and psychological. But what makes our home a healthy home, and<\/strong> how can we create a space that is conducive to our health and well-being?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Lighting, colors, shapes, aesthetics and functionality make a space<\/strong> pleasant, but there are other factors that are not seen, they are perceived. From GRUPO PAG\u00c8S BCN<\/strong> we invite you to become aware of your environment, to create optimal spaces for health and wellness.<\/p>\n\n

Before any renovation or purchase of a house or work area, it is advisable to be previously informed of the materials present in it and to carry out a geobiological prospecting<\/strong> in order to take the necessary measures.<\/p>\n\n

A geobiological prospection informs us about the characteristics of our environment,<\/strong> of our space, and gives us the possibility to take the necessary measures to create a healthy space in all senses. That it meets design standards and, at the same time, does not have repercussions on our health.<\/p>\n\n

Biohabitability studies the extent to which an environment is habitable, and its level of well-being and health.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

In the following link you can download our dossier<\/strong><\/a> in which we explain, in a much more extensive way, the concept of geobiology<\/strong> to understand and love your space.<\/p>\n\n

5 keys to healthier cities – ISGlobal<\/em><\/h2>\n\n

The keys to healthier cities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Our health and that of the planet depends, no longer in the future, but today, on the design of cities. Urban life poses challenges that require us to rethink the way we plan urban environments. Cities should be made for people: places where they can live well and be healthy.<\/p>\n\n

In the report<\/strong><\/a> interactive report by ISGlobal<\/strong> researchers addresses five points for building healthy and sustainable cities.<\/p>\n\n

Air pollution. <\/strong>It affects us throughout our lives, from the time we are in the womb until we die. But are we aware of what we are breathing?<\/p>\n\n

Noise.<\/strong> The traffic that clogs the city, the works in the street, the garbage truck, the domestic noises of the neighbors, the terraces… Cities are synonymous with noise. We think of noise pollution as just a nuisance and do not associate it directly with our health.<\/p>\n\n

3. Natural areas.<\/strong> The city of the future must be a green city. Scientific studies associate green spaces – urban parks, gardens, tree-lined streets or forests, among others – with numerous health benefits in adults, such as stress reduction, living longer, and better general and mental health.<\/p>\n\n

4. Physical activity. <\/strong>Sedentary lifestyles are a global public health problem: they are the fourth leading risk factor for global mortality and cause one in four cases of breast and colon cancer. Do you get enough physical activity?<\/p>\n\n

5. Temperature<\/strong>. Did you know that temperatures in cities are usually higher than in the surrounding areas? In fact, nighttime temperatures can be up to 10 degrees higher in urban environments than in the surrounding area. This effect is known as “heat island”.<\/p>\n\n

In addition, there are other factors that produce biological imbalances, weaken our immune system and produce diseases such as insomnia, fibromyalgia, irritations, headaches, among others. The strong charge of energy affecting certain sites is called GEOPATHY (Geo = Earth, Pathy = Illness). These are some of the natural and artificial alterations<\/strong> that we may encounter:<\/p>\n\n
