During a forest therapy session we slow down and, through an evolving series of sensory-focused invitations, mindfully interact with the world around us. The guide holds space for each person to arrive at a relationship with the Earth in their unique way while occasionally offering opportunities to witness our shared connection to nature. The benefits of forest bathing are well-researched and include easing depression and anxiety, improving immunity, reducing cortisol, and lowering high blood pressure and heart rate.
