<p>Forest Bathing Taster 1 hour – De-stress and Enjoy Nature in a New Way can be arranged anywhere in the Metropolitan area.</p>
<p>New to forest bathing or short of time? Try it out in a shorter taster session and lower immediately your stress hormone level, heart rate and blood pressure within 30 minutes! </p>
<p>The session, which allows you to immerse yourself in the sounds, scents, colours and shapes of the forest and reconnect with nature (and yourself), can be carried out even in a park or small forest area, for example, close to your hotel or congress/event venue. </p>
<p>In a group of max 15 people, the group walks slowly max.1 km and tries some guided nature connection and sensory awareness activities, lead by a certified local Forest Therapy and Wilderness Guide.<br />
At the end the participants share their experience and enjoy some Finnish herbal tea or blueberry smoothie. ​You'll also receive aromatic oil on your skin so you can continue to enjoy the therapeutic effects of the forest for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>The healing effects of nature on the body and mind have been recognized for thousands of years across different cultures. Forest bathing, or "shinrin-yoku," was developed in the 1980s in Japan as a treatment for the stress and exhaustion of urban populations. This mindfulness-based method has since spread worldwide and evolved into a well-researched wellness practice that enhances the documented health benefits of nature, effectively reduces stress, strengthens the immune system, and recharges you with new vitality.</p>
<p>Request a quote for your own group for recreational days, team-building days, meetings, workshops, birthdays, or bachelor/bachelorette parties! The experience can also be made accessible for everyone if so wished.</p>
<p>(A regular forest bathing experience lasts 2.5–3 hours.)</p>
