Why you should go forest bathing [at least] once a month

[but that won't be enough for you]

For some, it is a place of strength; others find comfort in it; and others find peace and quiet. The forest fascinates us and triggers a variety of positive emotions in us. But it can do even more: the forest is full of healing power. So, it's high time to experience it.

Your Guide to Forest Bathing, Shinrin Yoku, Being in the Forest

Discovering the magic of the forest?

Grab that book, and off you go into the forest!

"With this brilliant book, M. Amos Clifford shows us that we have far more than five senses at our disposal to absorb the forest's extensive therapeutic repertoire. Irresistibly, he invites us to open ourselves to the medicine of the forest and to connect with the more-than-human world. He chooses a language that touches our hearts, inspires our minds, and tickles our feet. So, grab the book and head into the forest!" Dr. Melanie H. Adamek, author and head of the IM-WALD-SEIN® Institute for Forest Medicine and Forest Therapy

Exploring the forest as a place for health and experiencing its unique healing powers?

My new favorite workout!

Versatile and individual

Spontaneously, I thought, "What a great idea!" On the other hand, I was a little skeptical as to whether it would work. After all, every forest is different, and it also makes a difference whether I go for a quick breath of fresh air during my lunch break or go on an extended Sunday trip. Besides, I like being out in nature, but I'm rarely in the forest.

The IM-WALD-SEIN experience diary

Capturing good thoughts and feelings? An enrichment for therapy work

Cleverly done! I would happily recommend this diary!

"I strongly encourage my patients to keep a therapeutic diary." It can be a playground, a psychoanalytic couch, a photo album with snapshots, a chronicle, an autobiography, and much more. In this forest experience diary, the "self" is capitalized. And by that, I don't just mean the layout and content, but, above all, the methods offered.
