Publisher's summary

Do you have friends that can't get enough of hiking? Have you gone for a beautiful yet simple walk in nature that makes you feel great, and you wonder why? Does nature seem to calm you down and awaken your senses?

For the past three decades, we have been immersing ourselves in a technological boom like no other. Escaping technology seems impossible, and burnout continues, but there is a solution gaining traction in the last 40 years: forest bathing.

Forest bathing isn't taking a bath in the middle of the forest; it's the act of allowing your senses to bathe in the sensations of the wooded areas we have come to know and love. During a forest bathing session, you fully immerse yourself into experiences, reaping physical, emotional, mental, and social health benefits. Forest bathing is a natural and proven way to help relieve stress and reduce the adverse effects that a hectic life can cause.

While listening to this book, you will discover:

  • The origins of forest bathing
  • How other cultures have adapted it
  • How and why it works
  • The ability to forest bathe even in urban areas.
  • Best cities for forest bathing
  • The way to rejuvenate your mind and body
  • Indirect forest bathing
  • Meditation among the trees

If you are serious about self-care, then this book will show you all of the best forest bathing practices to fine-tune your success. Go ahead; the trees are waiting!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

What a wonderful guide

Just listened to this captivating audiobook on forest bathing, and it's a breath of fresh air! It's such an enlightening experience learning about the practice and its numerous benefits. The author does a fantastic job explaining the origins of forest bathing, its adaptation across cultures, and practical ways to engage in this rejuvenating practice, even in urban areas.

As someone who enjoys hiking and nature walks, this book deepened my understanding of why these activities are so fulfilling. The concept of immersing oneself in the sensations of the woods and allowing the senses to 'bathe' in nature is beautifully presented. The practical tips for engaging in forest bathing, regardless of location, are particularly useful.

The book also provides an insightful breakdown of how forest bathing positively impacts physical, emotional, mental, and social health. The narration is engaging, making the content easily digestible and enjoyable. The blend of personal anecdotes, research, and actionable steps makes this a comprehensive guide to enhancing one's connection with nature.

Whether you're a seasoned nature lover or just curious about the concept of forest bathing, this audiobook is a must-listen. It's not only informative but also inspires a deeper appreciation for the natural world and the healing it offers. Highly recommended for its practical insights and refreshing approach to self-care and mindfulness.
