This practical online course offers you experience in Forest Bathing/Shinrin Yoku, and the skills to introduce this delightful practice into your work. You will graduate with a toolkit of dozens of activities, and the insights from supporting others through the same process. Over 8-weeks you’ll be guided to connect with your local nature through your senses in simple fun activities, and to learn from your course-mates in our interactive online community. At the end of the course you’ll reflect on the core principles and the learning gained, to enable you to adapt these skills to your own work setting.
Feelgood Forest Bathing provides high-quality online courses which employ experiential learning to guide the student into a deeper understanding of Nature Connection. The courses provide a unique learning experience through personal practice and reflection, and prepare the student to bring this gentle and magical art to their own field of work including, but not limited to, health and social work, and education.
Current research reveals that as well as having remarkable benefits for health and wellbeing, connecting with nature leads to more pro-social and pro-environmental behaviours. The interactive student-centred courses were created to bring the skills of Nature Connection to a wider audience, as one solution to our looming crises in health, community, and the environment.
