Prioritizing Wellness Now: 
Sunshine, fresh air and meaningful social contact are essential to our wellbeing. Gazing at the shifting clouds or listening to birdsong can be just what we need to feel better and stabilize our physical, mental and emotional balance. And while it is mostly not safe to gather in groups  and get on the trail together, we can take some time to connect with the healing power of inner and outer nature—and feel better together.

Forest Therapy guides all across the globe are offering innovative ways to provide a safe, pleasurable, and soothing antidote to the challenges of  the pandemic. Let a guide show you how!
