Forest Bathing+
This 2-3 hour immersion is a gentle introduction to Forest Bathing+ and its benefits.
Forest Bathing is best described as a slow, relaxing sensory journey designed to calm the body and mind. The physical and mental health benefits of Forest Bathing have been scientifically proven. Benefits include reduced stress levels, stronger immune system response, and a stabilised cortisol cycle.
In the session we do not walk very far in distance, and there will be plenty of time to relax and soak in the atmosphere of the very special places we have selected. You will be provided with a sequence of sensory exercises designed to calm the body and mind. This includes being encouraged to breath deeply; Japanese research uncovered essential wood oils can boost our immune system.
A slow walk though woodland may not seem that exciting, but many of our participants say that the session has a profound and transformative effect on them; even those who are used to outdoor pursuits often report positive changes in their understanding of woodland and nature. Most people experience such a strong feeling of connection that they feel drawn to return after our events.
If you have ever wondered about the healing effects of Nature, our guides will share various ways in which nature, and in particular trees, help us relax. We will also reveal the latest science on how natural settings positively impact the physiology of the body. You will return home with a few techniques to use when you need them.
We run Forest Bathing sessions all over the UK, including Newlands Corner near Guildford, an area of Ancient Woodland, with outstanding Yew Trees which provide a beautiful serene atmosphere.
