Forest Bathing, or Shinrin-yoku, is a nature-based well-being practice that originated in Japan in the 1980s. Developed by Dr. Qing Li as an antidote to stress-induced illnesses, Forest Bathing invites you to slow down, engage your senses, and reconnect with the tranquility of the natural world.
During a Forest Bathing session, you’ll be guided on a mindful walk through the woods, pausing to engage in simple activities that deepen your connection to nature and promote a sense of peace and calmness. No prior experience is necessary; simply come with an open heart and a willingness to explore the healing embrace of the forest.
Forest Bathing offers numerous benefits for both children and adults. It provides a much-needed respite from the demands of our modern lives, encouraging us to disconnect from screens, technology, and the constant hustle and bustle. It’s a chance to reconnect with the natural world, ourselves, and the people around us.
