According To Science, Japanese “Forest Bathing” Can Improve Your Health

I think I am doing it. It definately reduces stress. I can tell I don't need a test to show it. I don't believe its entirely due to plant essential oils. I use essential oils occasionally and it does not explain the entire effect. It's simply a calming environment. I get about the same effect from visiting the beach.

If you do it leave any smartphones or devices at home to increase the effect.

I agree with you Works. I dream of moving to Santa Cruz or near the red woods. I dream of forests. Even deserts are soothing to me. Cities don't offer that and make me clostrauphobic these days. I also remember walking in the magical forest of Broceliande in the norhter western parts of France where King Arthur is supposed to have raise Excalibur from a rock and Merlin's tomb lies. It was so magical.

The best part about forest is that besides the physiological qualities of their healthy and nurturing environment is the even-more subtle energies there. 

I miss that a lot and know I have to get closer to it again.
