Therapeutic Forests: Why Forest Bathing?

Zoe Balasch Arumí
Psicòloga, instructora de ioga, certificació en Guia de Bosc Terapèutic (Associació Sèlvans i Universitat de Girona)

Forest bathing promotes an attitude helping to bring us closer to nature and appreciate its tangible and intangible values. Essentially we are talking about a guided walk through a forest; both tranquil and accessible to anyone and everyone. The health benefits of carrying out forest bathing are enhanced thanks to the forest aerobiology, the silence and the (re)connection with the natural environment using all our senses.

Paths, dreams and promises

Sandra Bosch
Coach specialising in mediation and couple and family relacionships

Our proposal for conscious hiking involves focusing on mindfulness, on inner listening and the search for calm at its best. Menorca offers the best of scenarios making that possible. Its natural environment – that still remains original, virgin and authentic – contributes to our being able to journey along its paths while at the same time looking inwards and paying attention to what we feel The subtlety of its landscapes encourages allowing ourselves to flow with the little details, the minimalism, the simplicity thus engaging in our own humility as walkers. Let us enter into this intimate and magical journey and one that is full of discoveries!!!
