Nature and Forest Therapy Walks – Reconnect with Nature for Well-Being
Take a step into the serene embrace of nature on a guided Nature and Forest Therapy walk designed to rejuvenate your body, mind, and spirit. Also known as Shinrin-yoku in Japan, forest bathing is a practice of immersing oneself in the sights, sounds, and scents of the natural world to foster deep relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance overall well-being. This walk is a perfect opportunity to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the healing power of the natural environment.
What is Nature and Forest Therapy?
Nature and Forest Therapy is a guided experience that invites participants to engage all their senses in the natural world. Unlike a typical hike or nature walk, this therapeutic practice encourages a mindful, slow-paced exploration where you are invited to listen to the rustling of leaves, inhale the earthy scents of the forest, and feel the textures of the trees, moss, and earth beneath your feet. Studies have shown that this immersion in nature helps lower stress levels, boost immunity, improve mood, and promote mental clarity.

Why Attend?
This Nature and Forest Therapy experience offers more than just an outdoor adventure; it’s an opportunity to restore your mental and emotional health in an increasingly fast-paced world. Whether you are seeking to alleviate stress, boost your mood, or simply experience the calming effects of nature, this walk will leave you feeling refreshed, balanced, and more in tune with the environment.
Forest Therapy has been recognized for its direct benefit to human health and its ability to reduce stress while also boosting immune system function.
Mayo Clinic began prescribing nature for their patients in 2023, joining many doctors in Japan, Great Britain, Korea, Canada, New Zealand and around the world, who recognize the need to get humans back in nature for these benefits:
