Stories, shrines, and symbols: Recognizing psycho-social-spiritual benefits of urban parks and natural areas. This study advances theoretical understandings of the psycho-social-spiritual as it manifests within the dynamic relationship between humans and the urban environment, raises questions about the implications of these findings for the management of social-ecological systems, and suggests future research that delves into the practices of specific cultural and park user groups. We describe our findings and present a typology of psycho-social-spiritual engagement with natural areas in NYC parklands. Our approach is novel because it integrates data on park users from interviews, observations of activities, and material evidence of prior use of parklands. While specific practices may be culturally differentiated, we find that urban parks support psycho-social-spiritual well-being for a wide range of people who engage in practices that reflect personal desires to connect with nature and a larger reality, as well as via a broader set of practices focused on connecting with self and with others. Given our large and diverse sample, the data show that psycho-social-spiritual engagement with parkland is important across geographic, sociocultural, religious, and other identities throughout NYC. Our methods include interviews (n = 1,680), field observations, and photo documentation. Here we draw upon data from a social assessment of 40 New York City (NYC) parks spanning 11,200 acres and we focus on psycho-social-spiritual benefits that are co-produced by park users and parks. While there is a growing recognition that park users interact with these resources to promote well-being, the diversity of these practices and benefits is not fully appreciated. Urban parklands are biological and social resources. ![]()
