About this Event
🍁 Guided Forest Therapy walk developed by the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy is a practice that involves immersive sensory experiences in nature guided by a trained facilitator. This is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku, also known as forest bathing. It has therapeutic effects and it is not a form of psychotherapy.
Forest therapy is profound given the increasing challenges related to health, well-being, and environmental disconnect in our modern society. It promotes relaxation, improved mental health and clarity, boosted immunity due to exposure to nature, deepened connection to nature and promotes ecological mindfulness and a sense of belonging that is not only beneficial for personal well-being but can also inspire environmentally responsible behaviours.
💚 This is for you if you’re looking to enjoy the benefits described above AND to participate in this sensory experience with openness, curiousity and deep respect for others and nature.
❌ This is not for you if you’re looking to e.g. hike, grow your naturalist knowledge, be diagnosed or coached during the immersion.
