Participants are invited to awaken their senses, slow down, and quiet their mind. The practice of “Forest Bathing” or Shinrin Yoku originated in Japan in the 1980s to combat health related issues. In 2012, this practice was brought to the United States with the founding of the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy (ANFT).
