Forest Bathing
Rejuvenate Your Mind, Body, and Soul in the Healing Forest
Forest Bathing, a practice rooted in Japanese Shinrin-Yoku, is a form of nature therapy that involves immersing oneself in the forest atmosphere. Ideal for anyone seeking relaxation and a deeper connection with nature, this practice is especially beneficial for those looking to reduce stress and enhance well-being. Engaging in Forest Bathing typically involves mindful walks, embracing the sights, sounds, and smells of the forest, often guided by experts to maximize the therapeutic benefits. Our Forest Bathing program takes place in the lush surroundings of Chiang Mai, Thailand, incorporating stays at the culturally rich Lisu Lodge and visits to the serene Araksa Tea Garden, providing a unique blend of natural immersion and cultural experience.
