Thank you, thank you. I have forests within an easy and relatively close drive ... I sometimes forget they are there. And I am loathe to admit can take them for granted. You, with this immensely informative post, have jump-started a keen desire to get myself back out there as often as possible ... into the tall pines.
You must, please Helen, and each time you go you'll notice something new, or changed, or a new path..and I think you'll notice some beneficial changes within you, health-wise. Pls keep me updated on how it goes, I would really like that. All the best.
I am so glad I am reading this now, Ain. Last week we went for an impromptu hiking trip to a tiger reserve and your ten reasons make perfect sense to me. Staying in Delhi it is not possible for me to forest bathe but a daily walk in a wooded park is close enough.
I miss the woods. Florida’s beauty it’s all around the edges. I.e. the coastline, beautiful beaches and border. Anything internally is really scrubland.
I do, however, walk every single day. Working or not it’s a minimum of 3 miles. I have to be outside sometimes it’s the beach sometimes it’s through a park or sometimes it’s just in the neighborhood. But I have to walk outside. No treadmills for me! It is good for my heart and my lungs and my head. ☺️
