Woodlands Breathing

A forest therapy or forest bathing experience with Woodlands Breathing is offered in person here in Scotland or online (remotely guided) so that you can connect from your local green space wherever you are in the world or from the comfort of your home. Your Guide is certified by the ANFT. Sessions can be arranged for individuals joining a public group or bespoke groups (general wellbeing, groups of friends/family, 1:1, staff wellbeing). An online experience is via a phone, headphones and internet connection so requires a little technology to make it possible.

An in-person group is usually around 2.5 - 3 hours in duration while an online session is around 90 minutes. Forest bathing can be experienced by most fitness levels as it is a contemplative and gentle walk in green space. An online session can be done from your sofa, with a view of the sky and an element of nature while your Guide is walking.

Gift vouchers are available ... if there is someone special in your life who would enjoy a forest therapy experience - please contact organiser.
