Amongst Trees – A Place To Heal
Vision:
At the Forest Healing Sphere, we envision a world where individuals are deeply connected with nature, experiencing the restorative power of the forest for holistic wellness. Our vision is to foster a community that finds balance and harmony in their “kokoro” – the unity of heart, mind, and spirit, through the practice of “shinrin-yoku” or forest bathing. We aim to contribute to the transformation of individual and societal well-being, emphasizing the importance of sustainable living and environmental conservation for the health of our planet and future generations.
Mission:
Our mission at the Forest Healing Sphere is to provide a space for individuals to reconnect with nature, guided by the principles of “kokoro” and “shinrin-yoku”. Through our programs, we offer transformative experiences in the heart of the forest, enabling individuals to tap into the healing power of nature, promoting physical, mental, and spiritual health. We are committed to advancing research on shinrin-yoku and the impact of nature on kokoro, sharing our findings with the global community, and integrating evidence-based practices into our work. We embrace sustainable practices, engage with local communities, and actively participate in the preservation of our forests, fostering a deeper understanding and respect for our natural world. Our goal is to inspire a shift towards sustainable lifestyles, nourishing the kokoro, and cultivating a culture of peace and harmony with nature.
