Forest Bathing We love to Forest Bath, especially in the Autumn. Not simply a walk in the woods, it is the conscious and contemplative practice of being immersed in the sights, sounds and smells of the forest. Forest Bathing, is good for both physical and mental wellbeing. It is proven to reduce stress hormone production, improve feelings of happiness and free up creativity, as well as lower heart rate and blood pressure, boost the immune system and accelerate recovery from illness. Kath is currently working on a short story that is based in a forest – more to come soon on that one! The green in this photo helps balance all the red used on this website 😉
