Let's talk about Forest Bathing in my latest newsletter. The concept of shinrin-yoku, or forest bathing as it's known in the UK, was developed in Japan during the 1980s in response to government studies showing the benefits of spending mindful time in a forest. The success of the approach has proven so effective that forest bathing is now prescribed as a treatment by Japan and Korea's equivalent of the NHS.
There are many benefits of forest bathing including:
- Reduced blood pressure
- Lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol
- Lower blood sugar levels
- Lift depression
- Improved concentration and memory
- Boosted immune system
- Improved respect for the natural environment
In this month's newsletters there are also articles about free mental health and wellbeing online courses, and the benefits of having reflexology.
