In the midst of our busy, modern lives, it’s easy to feel disconnected — from ourselves, from the living world around us, and from the quiet rhythms of Earth. Forest bathing offers a gentle path back to our own human-nature

In a time when climate anxiety and ecological grief touch so many hearts, it can feel overwhelming to know where to begin. Yet the truth is, the most powerful place to start is right where you are — in your own backyard, balcony, or local green space – indeed, you are an ecosystem within yourself!
