Have you heard about Shinrin-yoku or “forest bathing”? A centering and calming restorative practice, it promotes balance and restored vitality through a quality of presence and heightened sensory awareness. Learn techniques to maximize the health benefits and stress-reducing qualities of this walking practice, which originated in Japan and is gaining popularity in the United States for its documented health benefits.
