Forest bathing, also known as shinrin-yoku in Japanese, is more than just a leisurely stroll through the woods. It’s an mindful practice that invites you to immerse yourself in nature using all your senses. Contrary to what the name suggests, you don’t have to go into water to forest bathe.  Instead, you focus on what you can see, hear, smell, touch and taste.
