Forest bathing is not a bath in the forest, but a guided experience in which we feel the forest through all our senses and reconnect with our body. It is a proven approach to relaxation and better health, where exercises for calming down and awakening the senses connect you with nature and yourself.

It is not recreation or hiking, but a mindful experience of yourself, your body and your surroundings.

Proven benefits

  • lowers stress and blood pressure,
  • strengthens the immune system through higher activity of natural killer (NK) cells,
  • improves mood, focus and sleep quality,
  • increases the sense of inner peace and vitality.

Just a few hours in the forest trigger changes that can last for days. The research was carried out in Japan, Europe and the USA.

How it works

  • Welcome and a short introduction to forest bathing (shinrin-yoku).
  • A guided walk through the forest with exercises to awaken the senses (watching, listening, touching, smelling).
  • Sharing circles: short pauses to reflect on how you feel.
  • Time for silence and personal exploration.
  • Closing tea by the forest: integrating the experience and talking.
“Your body will be grateful, and your mind rested and clear.

What's included

  • Professional guidance by a trained forest bathing guide.
  • A safe, calm setting in an unspoilt forest.

Who it's for

  • Anyone who wants to reduce stress, tiredness or burnout.
  • Anyone looking for a natural way to strengthen health and immunity.
  • Anyone who wants to experience nature more deeply.
