About Forest Bathing (Shinrin-yoku)

Forest bathing is the Japanese well-being practice of letting nature into our body through our senses. In Japan it is known as shinrin-yoku which translates ‘to bathe in the atmosphere of the forest’ or Forest Bathing. This wellbeing practice has a wide range of benefits and has been shown in studies to reduce stress, lower blood pressure, boost the immune system, and improve mental health. 

Forest bathing is different from any other type of nature walk. Gentle walks of around 1-1½ kilometres (½-1 mile) last about 1 1/2 hours. Guided sessions offer experiences that support the awakening of your senses which reduce the static of your inner voice allow you to be present and help you establish a deeper connection to nature.
