Forest Healing

Forest Healing When we spend unhurried time in nature good things happen to our mind & body.

Inspiring you to look after yourself, each other, and the planet, we offer nature-connection activities in-person and online to boost wellbeing and improve planetary health. Forest Bathing is a practice of walking slowly and leisurely through the woods or forest, immersing yourself in the natural environment and mindfully using all your senses.

The best day ever! I thought my owl had got tired of me watching him and moved house as I hadn’t seen him for about two months. Today he (or she) just sat and let me admire his (or her) beauty for as long as I wanted, sitting in the opening in the owl box that I made and put up in the woods near where I work.

What would you say if I told you that some of the states of mind people seek through extraordinary means can also be found, quietly and gently, among the trees?

A small collection designed to gently open the door into deeper relationship with the natural world.

This complete set of four Forest Healing booklets brings together practical guidance, reflective ideas, and simple nature connection practices that can be used anywhere — from ancient woodland to a nearby park, garden, or even a single Sit Spot outdoors.

Written to be accessible, grounding, and easy to follow, these booklets offer a pathway into the core practices of Forest Bathing (Shinrin-yoku), Silvotherapy, and everyday nature connection. Rather than asking you to achieve anything, they simply invite you to slow down, notice more deeply, and allow nature to become an active presence in your wellbeing.

Across the four booklets you will explore:

• What Forest Bathing, Silvotherapy, and Nature Connection actually are
• The key benefits of spending mindful time in natural environments
• The practice of the “Sit Spot” and how to develop your own relationship with a chosen place
• Simple, practical Forest Bathing invitations you can try alone or with others
• Ways to bring nature connection into everyday life, even in small moments

Together, they form a gentle introduction to practices that have been shown to support reduced stress, improved mood, greater clarity of thought, and a deeper sense of belonging within the natural world.

These are not academic texts or rigid instruction manuals. They are invitations — encouraging you to step outside, slow your pace, and rediscover the quiet intelligence of trees, weather, and landscape.

Whether you are completely new to nature connection or looking to deepen an existing practice, this collection offers a simple, supportive starting point for building a more intentional and restorative relationship with the living world around you.

A small set of booklets that can change the way you experience even the most familiar patch of nature.

Shinrin Yoku Blend #1 – The Essence of Forest Bathing

Bring the atmosphere of a Japanese forest into your home with our signature Shinrin Yoku Blend #1.

Inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku – often translated as ‘Forest Bathing’ – this carefully crafted blend combines therapeutic-grade Hinoki Cypress and Yuzu essential oils to create an aroma that is both deeply grounding and gently uplifting. The practice of Shinrin-yoku was developed in Japan as a way of reconnecting with the natural world through mindful immersion in the sights, sounds, scents, and atmosphere of the forest. Research has shown that time spent in woodland environments can help reduce stress, support wellbeing, and foster a greater sense of calm and connection.

The rich, woody fragrance of sacred Hinoki Cypress evokes ancient temple forests and mountain woodlands. Revered in Japan for centuries, Hinoki is associated with peace, harmony, and quiet reflection. Its warm forest aroma is beautifully balanced by the bright, fresh notes of Yuzu, a traditional Japanese citrus fruit valued for its refreshing and revitalising scent. Together they create a fragrance that captures the feeling of walking slowly through a sunlit woodland after rain.

Many people use this blend during meditation, journalling, yoga, relaxation, or simply as part of a daily ritual to bring a sense of nature indoors. A few drops in a diffuser can transform a room, helping to create a peaceful atmosphere that encourages you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with yourself and the natural world.

Our Shinrin Yoku Blend #1 is supplied in a generous 30ml dropper bottle and contains therapeutic-grade Hinoki Cypress and Yuzu essential oils. The Hinoki oil is distilled from sustainably sourced by-products of the timber industry, making use of wood remnants and shavings that would otherwise go to waste.

Ways to enjoy Shinrin Yoku Blend #1

• Diffuse during meditation, mindfulness, or yoga practice
• Add a few drops to a terracotta leaf diffuser
• Create a calming atmosphere in your home or workspace
• Use as part of an evening wind-down ritual
• Enhance your indoor nature connection practice when visiting a woodland is not possible

More than an essential oil blend, Shinrin Yoku Blend #1 is an invitation to experience something of the restorative spirit of the forest wherever you are. Each drop carries the scent of woodland air, helping you cultivate moments of stillness, presence, and connection throughout your day.

Postage and Packing is £2 for up to three 30ml bottles in the UK.
