Shinrin-yoku, or forest bathing, is a Japanese practice that promotes reconnection with nature to reduce stress and improve emotional well-being, gaining popularity worldwide.
In the 1980s, Japan pioneered a revolutionary practice known as shinrin-yoku or forest bathing, which translates to 'absorbing the atmosphere of the forest.' This technique serves as a potent remedy against urban stress and aims to reconnect individuals with nature, thus enhancing both physical and mental health. Increasingly embraced in Western countries, health professionals are beginning to recognize the considerable benefits of this practice.
