    I started practicing forest bathing after the first UK lockdown. I've been suffering with deep grief and depression since losing my sister to cancer in Jan 2020 and also as an introvert I feel a very deep connection with nature.

    I just love going into the forest and breathing deeply. Hugging the trees and taking it all. Its a natural depression buster.

    'You are not a guest in the forest, but you are part of the forest'. So Powerful. This has re-ignited my desire to go back into Nature. Thank you!!

    I've been trail running for quite a while and hadn't fully slowed down and just chill out on my local trails. I've grown to appreciate the land I have around me so much more just taking some time to meditate and experience everything around me.

    Thank you so much for creating such a wonderful video. In last 2 years, I suffered with acute stress and lost so many things from life. But I know forest bathing can change this.

    This is so, so unbelievably interesting, such a wonderful video! 😊. For me, forest bathing puts me right back into a child like mindset. Slowing down and opening your mind to every detail is quite a profound experience and almost like an effective natural tonic for the mind. You present this topic in such a beautiful way, thank you!

    I feel so relaxed right now, you really managed to convey the beautiful energy of the forest. The details, the sounds, your words touch my heart. I was really there for a moment, what a wonderful video!

    This is beautiful. I'd love to connect with anyone who has been practicing this, let me know your thoughts on it. I feel so out of alignment so I think I may start forrest bathing to connect with mother nature but also myself.

    Thank you for this beautiful meditation. I have a friend who is a Forest Bather practitioner and routinely takes groups out. I have been privileged to attend once but schedule and health issues have kept me from getting out. I need to just start going out again on my own schedule and time frame. (Hers are typically 3 hour sessions). You have motivated me to get out even if just 30 minutes 😊❤️

    You found such a lovely forest there with all the flowers! Yes it is also a great way for me to "energize".

    Great video. I agree that Forest Bathing is something to be experienced. If your forest is sufficiently remote or you can find somewhere off the beaten track then using your imagination you can be even more immersive in the forest/woods.
