forest therapy is based on the japanese practice of "shinrin-yoku" (forest bathing), which is a form of therapeutic relaxation in which your senses are immersed in nature to relax, heighten awareness and form a deeper connection to nature. as a certified guide, i believe in the healing power of nature. walks provide an intentional space to slow down, breathe deeply and remember the quiet strength that lives within you.
