The Healing Power of Shinrin-Yoku:

Shinrin-Yoku, which translates to “forest bathing,” is a Japanese practice that originated in the 1980s as a response to urban stress and overwork. This mindful approach to nature involves slow walking, deep breathing, and tuning into the senses to fully immerse oneself in the forest environment. Research has shown that spending time in nature through forest bathing can have numerous health benefits, including:
