Today, the impact of the environment as one of the most important factors in mental health and human behavioral patterns, as well as the influence of nature and green spaces on reducing daily psychological stress and enhancing mental health, has been proven. Researchers believe that nature and green spaces can effectively reduce daily psychological stress and enhance mental health by helping to cope with anxiety. The main goal of this research is to incorporate healing components into landscape design and urban environments, equipping these landscapes with healing qualities and providing appropriate solutions to create healing urban landscapes. Given the current time frame and the existence of social crises, economic instability in society, and the resulting psychological damage, conducting this research is timely. This research, conducted to analyze concepts and indicators in Paknejad Boulevard in Tehran, is situated within the scope of applied research in terms of objectives and subject matter. In terms of research methodology, it is a descriptive-analytical study with a content analysis approach, leaning towards qualitative methods. "Initially, some key indicators were extracted through library studies, and then field studies such as behavioral mapping were conducted using research tools. Subsequently, a questionnaire was designed based on the healing components extracted from relevant sources. To assess validity, the questionnaire was randomly distributed to users. The responses were analyzed using the statistical analysis software SPSS, and the data outputs were presented in the form of charts and frequency tables. The results of this research indicate that influential healing indicators in urban landscape design include elements such as the presence of water, interaction with nature, sensory stimulation, environmental tranquility, a sense of security in space, colors, pleasant scents, and soothing sounds. Ultimately, strategic actions and appropriate solutions were proposed by analyzing influential healing principles and indicators essential for designing a healing urban landscape. |
