The Benefits of Forest Bathing and Why It's a Healthy Activity

<p>In this episode, I talk about Forest Bathing, the benefits and why it&apos;s a healthy activity. <br/><br/>W<b>hat is it about forest life that draws us, heals us, and brings us joy? <br/>What does it mean to bath our senses in the atmosphere of the forest?<br/><br/>In the forest, nothing is asked of us so we find ourselves listening, observing and noticing what’s around us. We relax. And when we are in a place where we can calmly take in our surroundings, particularly in a forest where our senses are bathed, we become peaceful just by the very fact that our body is in a restful state and that we’re breathing more deeply.<br/><br/>Join me as I take you on a journey through the forest to experience how and why it&apos;s healing for the senses and the soul.<br/></b><br/></p><p><b>Key Points From This Episode:</b></p><ul><li><b>Understanding what forest bathing is.</b></li><li><b>The health benefits of forest bathing.</b></li><li>Why<b> I built a forest at a Waldorf pre-school program.</b></li><li><b>Why forest life heals and nurtures our emotional well-being, physical bodies, and soul.</b></li><li><b>What it means to bathe our senses in the atmosphere of a forest.</b></li><li><b>How to craft and cultivate a simple and better forest experience.</b></li><li><b>Nature as a powerful antidote for sensory overload and challenging behaviors.</b></li><li><b>The ways children absorb experiences and how to use this to foster healthy development.</b></li><li><b>The four foundational senses as our child’s sensory building blocks.</b></li><li><b>How to observe your child in a  forest bathing experience. </b></li><li><br/></li></ul><p><b>Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode:</b></p><p><a href='https://wenurturecollective.com/'><b>We Nurture Collective</b></a></p><p><a href='https://www.instagram.com/p/CezGGMapoNt/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link'><b>We Nurture Instagram</b></a><b>   </b></p><p><a href='https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce9JZTSpPvZ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link'><b>We Nurture Instagram  </b></a></p><p>Association for Heali
