A2 SHINRIN YOKU

 Guided Nature Immersion ​Experiences
About your
EXPERIENCE
THE PRACTICE OF NATURE IMMERSION 

Begun in Japan in the 1980s, Shinrin-yoku literally means "forest bathing."  Studies show that time in nature helps the mind and body relax and restore itself.   The science shows that simply being in nature is good for you!
​


CAN YOU DO FOREST THERAPY? 
The purpose of Forest Therapy is not to cover distance, but to reawaken your physical senses to the natural world that surrounds us.
​It can experiential, playful and contemplative. Feel free to make it your own! 

A typical guided immersion experience is less than half a mile. Trails are carefully chosen for ease of travel. A typical experience lasts 90 to 180 minutes. 

ALL ARE WELCOME!


If you have physical challenges, let the guide know ahead of time so that they can be prepared to support you.
