Forest and Nature Therapy for You and the Workplace
Forest and Nature Therapy includes forest bathing as a primary wellbeing practice to target specific mental and physical health difficulties. The natural world is our therapeutic partner which facilitates a deep connection to nature and supports an individual’s wellbeing journey regardless of their social environment.
Forest and nature therapy is supported by a multidisciplinary approach from sociology, psychology, social work, eco-psychology, ecology, forest medicine, forestry, and planetary health, among others. Underpinned by this approach, forest and nature therapy can act as an adjunct to standard treatment and rehabilitation for specific illnesses. (Forest Therapy Hub)
