Forest Therapy excursions coming soon...

Have you ever wondered what Forest Therapy or Shinrin Yoku is?  It is the medicine of simply being in the forest.  It was developed in Japan in the 1980's.  Researchers have conducted studies on the health benefits of spending time among trees.  They have found that it creates calming effects in the nervous system, it reduces stress hormones and boosts your immune system.  The studies also show reduced stress, anger, anxiety, depression and blood pressure, as well as improvements in your concentration and mental clarity.  With all of these benefits no wonder it is being studied and becoming popular all over the world.  This is not a hike in the woods!  It is a mindful and quiet walk and time spent under the canopy of trees.  If you'd like to learn more and experience Forest Therapy for yourself sign up now for our group excursions.
