Principles of ecology apply at myriad scales, including within the human body and the intertwined macro and microscopic ecosystems that we depend upon for survival. The conceptual principles of dysbiosis (âlife in distressâ) also apply to different realms of lifeâour microbiome, the macro environment and the socioeconomic domain. Viewing the human body as a holobiontâa host plus billions of microbial organisms working symbiotically to form a functioning ecological unitâhas the potential to enhance personal and planetary health. We discuss this ecological perspective in our paper. We also discuss the proposals to rewild the microbiome, innovative microbiome-inspired green infrastructure (MIGI) and the basis of prescribing âdoses of natureâ. Particular emphasis is given to MIGIâa collective term for the design and management of innovative living urban features that could potentially enhance public health via health-inducing microbial interactions. This concept builds upon the microbiome rewilding hypothesis. Mounting evidence points to the importance of microbial diversity in maintaining favorable health. Moreover, connecting with natureâboth physically and psychologicallyâhas been shown to enhance our health and wellbeing. However, we still need to understand the underlying mechanisms, and optimal types and levels of exposure. This paper adds to other recent calls for the inclusion of the environment-microbiome-health axis in natureâhuman health research. Recognizing that all forms of lifeâboth the seen and the unseenâare in some way connected (ecologically, socially, evolutionarily), paves the way to valuing reciprocity in the natureâhuman relationship. It is with a holistic and symbiotic perspective that we can begin to integrate strategies and address connected issues of human and environmental health. The prospective strategies discussed in our paper focus on enhancing our connections with the natural world, and ultimately aim to help address the global challenge of halting and reversing dysbiosis in all its manifestations.
