WALDNESS®… forest works!
The longing for fundamental experiences with nature, sustainable
recreation and relaxation slumbers within us.
WALDNESS® (Forest bathing) lets you immerge in the
cleansing atmosphere of the forest. You will consciously
smell and enjoy the aroma of the forest and feel the healing
effect of trees and forest plants and learn to understand
the connection between nature and people.
WALDNESS® (Forest bathing) is retreat, recreation
and refueling of energy amidst gigantic trees, turquoise
rivers and lakes, high mountains and fragrant flower
meadows and it is the chance to find your own healthy
rhythm and to live.
Forest bathing or 森林浴 Shinrin-yoku in Japanese, is
generally translated as the breathing in of forest’s healthy
atmosphere while taking a walk, has been part of a healthy
life style in Japan for more than 20 years.
Dwelling in the forest has a positive effect on many levels
of our health: the immune system is strengthened, stress
hormones are reduced and the quality of sleep is being
improved.
WALDNESS® (Forest bathing) implements
current Austrian and International studies of the healing
effect of forests with experts and show you many ways to
best use the forest atmosphere for you and your health.
