## What is Forest Bathing Life?

Humanity is facing a global crisis which stems from our disconnection from the natural world.  Many of us suffer from a “nature deficit” as we spend more and more time indoors.  With time spent in nature decreasing, many of us are suffering from stress and anxiety.  And with that stress comes inflammation: the root of so many ailments and illnesses.  

We must break free of this cycle!  Nature is always here for you.  What you need is a practice, a guide who reminds you and teaches you and a community to help you CONNECT TO NATURE.  

So much of nature connection is the time we allow ourselves to be outdoors and in a special state of mind.  Give yourself this time.  The app can help you prioritize this practice above all other distractions that come in this busy modern life.  

I want to guide you to create a different routine, a different way of seeing and interacting with the world that is new but deeply familiar.  There is so much awe, so much simplicity, complexity, beauty and intrigue waiting for you to discover when we slow down and simply notice.  The practice of forest bathing is the path that awaits you.

With 8 years of experience and having helped over 1,500 people around the world with developing an understanding and practice of forest bathing, I've designed the app to deepen your relationship to the natural world by establishing and integrating the practice of Forest Bathing into your daily life.  

Would you like to connect to nature while taking care of your wellbeing while combating those feelings of stress and anxiety?  Are you ready to take the steps towards feeling more peace and connection with nature with this transformative practice?  Then this is your time!

### 5/5 — Great program

*2023-09-06*

I love this program … excellent fir getting back into daily routine of being in nature using all of your senses

### 5/5 — Highly recommended

*2020-12-27*

This app will take you on a soothing journey and I cannot recommend it enough. The content is of the highest quality and Duncan the forest guide is very knowledgeable and has the perfect voice to lead these online forest bathing practices. Using this app on a regular basis will change your life.

### 5/5 — Forest Bathing

*2020-12-14*

Really nicely laid out course and easy to use app. The structure of course and the app were logical, sequential, and user-friendly. 

I took this course in “real time” along with a group of other participants, with the app as a guide each week for discovering and exploring the art of forest bathing. But It could easily be used on one’s own, completed at your own pace, because the materials within the app guide you beautifully. The strength, gentleness, and clarity of Duncan’a teaching comes through clearly in the videos and audio recordings embedded in the app. I would highly recommend you take this course if you are looking to deepen your connection to nature, and learn more about yourself through the process.  It has helped me enter nature and the outdoors as someone who is more curious, open, and aware.

### 5/5 — Forest Bathing -Nature Connection

*2020-12-09*

I am so grateful to create more roots into nature. Duncan was an amazing and authentic guide who helped me tap deeper into the senses to take on all the glory nature gives. I learned a lot about my own relationship and reciprocity with nature and myself within the web of life and death. It couldn’t have come at a better time as nature grounded me during all these changes with the pandemic. I love the way I got to connect to others who also share love for nature. It was deep and intimate despite it being an app.

### 5/5 — Phenomenal App!

*2020-12-07*

I just completed a 6-week course on the Forest Bathing Life app and I’m excited to subscribe to the rest of the content. With the help of this app, I’ve finally been able to develop a consistent practice for engaging with the natural world. Each practice has left me feeling calm, grounded, and centered and this has had a positive effect on all other aspects of my life.
