Forest therapy is based on the Japanese practice, shinrin-yoku, which can be translated as “forest bathing” or “taking in the atmosphere of the forest.” A centering and calming restorative practice, it promotes balance and restored vitality through a quality of presence and heightened sensory awareness. It’s a time to slow down and become immersed in the natural environment, connecting with self, connecting with others, and connecting with the more-than-human world. Quickly growing in popularity in the United States and internationally, there is evidence that the practice of forest therapy can help boost immunity, improve overall health, and reduce stress. Give yourself the gift of time in nature and experience the restorative benefits of this healing practice for yourself.
