As someone who knows self-care is vital for emotional and physical wellbeing you may have heard about Forest Bathing, a practice from Japan that helps calm stress and return your mind and body to emotional and physical balance. A Zen monk has created an even more powerful method called Forest Therapy.
Join me for my conversation with Certified Forst Therapy guide Cheree Ingram to learn what Forest Therapy is, how it's practiced, and emotional, physical, and spiritual benefits available to anyone who chooses to experience this powerful practice.
In addition to being a certified Forest Therapy guide, Cheree holds a Masters degree in Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania, trainer certifications in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, Yoga, and other holistic methods. You'll find her full bio below.
