WELCOME TO WHISPERING WOODS FOREST BATHING
Forest Bathing, or Shinrin Yoku, invites you to step into the woods and slow down.
Based in East Dunbartonshire, North of Glasgow, with regular walks at Campsie Glen and taster walks available at Lenzie Moss. And we're happy to travel and plan something bespoke for you.
ABOUT FOREST BATHING
Shinrin Yoku originated in Japan in the 1980s and it translates as, 'to bathe in the atmosphere of the forest'. Don't worry, no swimming costumes are needed! Put simply, it’s a mindful, multi sensory, nature immersive experience. Forest Bathing has proven health and wellbeing benefits. Spending time in oxygen rich clean air, natural soundscapes, near moving water, enjoying visual patterns, colours and sunlight are all rejuvenating.
Walks normally last about 2 hours depending on location. We don't cover much distance but slow down and invite you to connect with nature in new ways. We finish with a tea ceremony and snack.
