More on Nature and Forest Therapy

The forest is the therapist. The guide opens the door.

“You carry a forest inside you. It is a mirror within of the great forests of the world. This is an invitation to bring those inner and outer forests together. Forest bathing is a practice that belongs in each person’s palette of self care strategies. It is also a powerful path of activism for those who are called to help heal the broken relationships between people and the more than human world. Humans are not separate from nature and have no free pass to escape the traumas we inflict upon it. Healing of people and forests happens together, or not at all. The medicine that brings healing is in the relationship. Forest bathing is a potent tool in this supremely important work.” From Amos Clifford’s, “Your guide to Forest Bathing.”
