In this episode, we explore the concept of Shinrin-Yoku as it is know in Japan. It is the ancient practice of forest bathing which simply is the art of getting outdoors into the woods and natural spaces as a way to re-establish our innate connection with nature. The core element of any shinrin-yoku is to develop a sense of being and belonging. Using nature to understand where you are in the universe of your life, engage all your sense to feel connected with all that is around you and to lean in to all that the forest provides. It involves the practice of actively communicating with the land – something perhaps we all really need right now more than anything else.
