Forest Bathing: The Healing Nature of Nature

Forest Bathing: The Healing Nature of Nature

We've known for a long time that taking a walk outdoors can be beneficial for mental health. But new studies suggest that spending time in nature, especially among trees, offers scientifically proven benefits to both mental and physical wellbeing. This short documentary takes viewers into the woods for a lesson in Forest Bathing, the practice of mindful observance of nature originated in Japan.
