Resumen del Editor

Forest bathing is a gentle, meditative practice of connecting with nature. Simply being present with all of our senses, in a forest or other wild area, can produce mental, emotional, and physical health benefits. It is a simple, accessible antidote to our nature-starved lives and can inspire us to become advocates for healing our relationships with the more-than-human world.

This book is both an invitation to take up the practice of forest bathing and an inspiration to connect with nature as a way to help heal both the planet and humanity.

Forest Therapy is a research-based framework for supporting healing and wellness through immersion in forests and other natural environments. In Japan, forest bathing is known as shinrin-yoku. Studies there have demonstrated a wide variety of health benefits, especially in the cardiovascular and immune systems, and for stabilizing and improving mood and cognition.

In Your Guide to Forest Bathing, Amos Clifford draws on four decades of wilderness experience to introduce readers to the medicine of being in the forest. Learn about the roots of the practice, how to deepen your relationship to nature, and how to begin a practice of your own. Practical matters such as finding a suitable trail and what to bring are also included.

Love it

I want to recommend this book to everyone. I also want to buy my own copy so I can reference it again as needed.

First time I’ve dug deep into forest bathing

This was an excellent introduction into the world forest bidding, I’ve heard about it for years, but this book has definitely helped me, spark, more interest, and initiative to take my first steps into this phenomena world. Highly recommend it!

The OG that many have since tried to imitate!

This is a small practical treasure in the act of bathing with forests.

You would do well at start here and come back again and again even after the popular fluff on the subject that seems to be in vogue.

Solid Nonfiction Title

The narrator does a good solid nonfiction narration, clear and varied enough, and both topic and narration held my interest. Sometimes with self-development themed titles with lots of activities and suggestions, I find that although I enjoy the audio, I'd like to have access to the print book as well, and I did feel that way with this one.

soothing

wonderful exploration of connecting with the more than human work beyond hiking and scientific nature study. I can't wait to try it

Brilliant, playful, deep and full of possibility!

What a journey! I hope people really do take this book with them into the forest. May we all find healing and build relationships of reciprocity as we find our way between the chaos world and the wilderness with tenderness and love. Forest Therapy as defined by Anos Clifford, founder of ANFT, is such a beautiful and powerful practice with potent potential for all who are willing to open their hearts and bodies. Do yourself a favor and read this book. Then read it again. Then pass it on to a friend.

Excellent everyone should read!

Full of lots of information. A beautiful way to see forests. I will enjoy my walks a great deal more with this knowledge. Thanks
