Rest and De-Stress incorporates a blend of both green (forest) and blue (water stream) spaces to provide a therapeutic experience to support your emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual health

2.5 Hours Forest Bathing Nature Immersion with a Certified Forest Bathing Guide.

Forest Bathing, also known as Shinrin-Yoku, Shinrin in Japanese means “forest,” and yoku means “bath”. Shinrin-yoku means bathing in the forest atmosphere or taking in the forest through our senses.

What to Expect

In this immersion I will be leading you on a short stream trek at Belcher's Falls while we bathe in the lush green forest at the heart of Pok Fu Lam

You will be guided through a series of nature connection activities and experience nature's therapeutic effect on your health and well-being during the immersive experience. There is no pressure to perform or finish each task or activity. The key is to create an experience that is comfortable for you and partner with nature on this journey.

Forest Bathing is not a hike or a naturalistic walk but about immersing oneself in the natural environment.

NOTE

The walk distance will be no more than 2 km. This walk may require some form of stream trekking and suitable for those with moderate level of fitness.

Benefits of Forest Bathing based on scientific research:

+ Strengthen the immune system

+ Maintain cardiovascular health, lower blood pressure

+ Strengthened social relationships

+ Contributes to mental health: reduction of stress, depressive symptoms, and anxiety

+ Human feelings of “awe” - boost creativity and focus
