The forest is the therapist. The guide merely opens the door…
Experience the peace, wisdom, and relaxation nature offers.
You are invited to unplug from the modern world and immerse yourself in a pre-scouted natural setting for a Forest Bathing walk with a certified guide. During a two-hour session covering less than one mile, you will be offered a sequence of nature-connection invitations that engage your senses, promote a sense of calm, and reflect your inner landscape.

Meet Your Certified Guide
Hello!
My name is Rebecca Sanda. A few years ago, I read an article about shinrin-yoku, or the Japanese practice of Forest Bathing, and it sparked my curiosity.
When I took a sabbatical from my high-stress career, I pursued my interest by training with the Forest Therapy Hub in Scotland. What essentially began as a vacation turned into a passion, fueled by the feedback I received during my practical field work.
People experiencing all kinds of stress triggers - such as menopause, divorce, addiction, the demands of a young family, and more - shared they felt intense relaxation and, often, uncovered a new perspective.
I now offer walks in the Cary area so others can get to know this simple, yet effective, practice.
I hope you will join me!
