Forest Therapy, also known as forest bathing, is a synthesis of ancient traditions and modern research referring to the practice of spending time in forested areas for the purpose of enhancing health, wellness, and happiness. Humans have long recognized the healing properties of spending time with trees. In recent centuries we have rapidly shifted towards urbanized and digitized environments that do not provide our bodies with the biological stimuli required for heath. Forest therapy is a research-based practice that connects people with sunlight, fresh air, and organic compounds such as terpenes and phytoncides that are essential to maintaining our health. Studies demonstrate numerous health benefits, especially in supporting the cardiovascular and immune systems. Medical research also demonstrates that forest bathing supports a reduction of cortisol (stress) levels and blood pressure, stabilizes and improves mood, and offers increased mental focus. Beneficial phytoncides, are also known to decrease depression and anxiety. Forest Therapy takes a mindfulness based approach to deepening reciprocal relationships with the more than human world. You will be offered a number of invitations that will awaken the senses, restore connection to nature and yourself, and practice mindfulness. There will be moments of silence and time for sharing your experiences and stories.
