Mindful Outdoor Nature Guides - Forest Bathing

Mind The Forest invites one to pay attention to nature and its ageless wisdom, while cultivating reciprocity between the human and more-than-human world in caring for this precious teacher.

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach.

- Henry David Thoreau

Your Health & Wellness Matter

Many of us are in overdrive filtering endless information streams, reacting to near constant alerts or posts from our phones and tablets, navigating through a twenty-four-hour news cycle. Forest Bathing helps reconnect humans with the outdoor world to which we are naturally adapted. Even after small periods of time in the forest, nature exposure reduces levels of the stress hormone cortisol and lowers blood pressure and heart rate. Trees release phytoncides into the air which boost our immune system and mood. We are healthier and happier when we are outside.

Live With Passion & Purpose

Mindful connection with the nature is crucial for cultivating a balanced, inspired and fulfilled life.

For your body: Release stress, breathe fresh air, and get moving.
For your mind: Settle your awareness on nature's soothing atmosphere
For your spirit: Venture into the wood to gain inspiration from the living earth.
