Have you heard of forest bathing? It's not actually bathing in water, but immersing yourself in the woods. Being present, noticing the trees, the wildlife, the sounds, and the aromas. Forest bathing became an integral part of Japanese preventative health care in the 80s. They discovered that being in a forest lowers blood pressure, reduces stress hormone production, boosts the immune system as well as increases feelings of well-being. In this visualization, you won't actually be in the forest. Still, I hope to help you experience the next best thing.
