FOREST THERAPY/FOREST BATHING WALK

DROP-IN SPORTS

Forest bathing, also known as shinrin-yoku, is the Japanese practice of connecting deeply with nature through bathing in the forest atmosphere. It is a practice that involves taking in the forest with the senses and, with regular practice, has been found to strengthen the immune and cardiovascular systems, decrease stress and anxiety, and improve overall well-being. Join Peter and Kelly from Salish Sea Forest & Nature Therapy Walks for this introduction to forest bathing; an opportunity to slow down and disconnect from the outside world to receive the healing benefits of nature and the forest.

For optimal health benefits, and to improve functional abilities, aim to accumulate 150 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity per week in bouts of 10 minutes or more.

Moderate-intensity physical activities will make you sweat and breathe a little harder.

Vigorous-intensity ones will keep you sweating and cause you to be ‘out of breath’.

Being active for at least 150 minutes per week can help reduce risk of chronic disease, and help to maintain functional independence, mobility, bone health, good mental health and overall fitness!
