The session begins at the edge of the forest. Or a quiet room filled with living green. We start with the origin of forest bathing and how it became a practice of slowing down. You’ll feel the impact of the environment on humans in real time—light, scent, texture, sound. We move through the principles and foundations of sylvotherapy, with gentle guidance on preparing and running a sylvotherapy session for yourself. You’ll be introduced to the sit spot—a place to return to, again and again. Even indoors, the practice holds. We explore indoor forest bathing, where presence matters more than place.
As you settle, your body begins to respond. Trees release phytoncides, and you feel their effects—subtle, steady, real. We draw from traditional sylvotherapy, honoring stillness and attention. Then we translate it for modern life through indoor sylvotherapy: plants and their properties. Leaves. Soil. Air. Each with a role. There are quiet moments shaped by notions of aromatherapy, where scent becomes memory and grounding. Nothing forced. Nothing performative. Just a return to rhythm.
