More benefits of Forest Bathing: Grounding (aka earthing) provides significant health benefits by connecting the body to the Earth's natural electrical charge. It works by neutralizing free radicals. Best of all, you don’t really have to “walk barefoot”; simply touching any part of your skin to the ground, or a plant rooted in the ground, or any conductive surface in/on the ground (water, rock, etc), your electrical charges become balanced.

Continued benefits of Forest Bathing: Mindfulness! The art of awareness in the present moment can be challenging, but yields profound benefits, including reducing stress & anxiety, improving focus, & emotional regulation, just to name a few. Forest Therapy can help! As you are guided through a variety of nature based activities, designed to engage all of your senses and keep you awe inspires & heart-focused, it allows your mind to settle into stillness and gratitude. Peaceful mind = peaceful body! 🫶

Continued benefits of Forest Bathing: Listening to birdsong provides significant mental & physical health benefits, including reduced stress & anxiety, improved mood, and enhanced cognitive function. These positive effects are rooted in our evolutionary history, because the presence of singing birds is an auditory cue that an environment is safe and resource-rich, helping the nervous system relax.

One primary health benefit of Forest Bathing is that we inhale Phytoncides while visiting trees. Not only do we share reciprocal breaths - they offer us oxygen & we return carbon dioxide to them - but Phytoncides are antimicrobial volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released by trees as a natural defense mechanism against harmful insects and bacteria. When inhaled during activities like forest bathing, these compounds boost our health by increasing natural killer (NK) cell activity, reducing stress hormones like cortisol, lowering blood pressure, and improving mood.
