A forest bath offers you a deeper connection with the peculiar nature of the Mittlandsskogen. A forest created by thousands of years of grazing and farming by the people of Öland. Join us for a guided forest bath with Caroline Kindblom Landtmanson. She is a biologist, certified forest bathing guide ([SNFTI Scandinavian Nature and Forest Therapy Institute] (https://www.scandinaviannatureandforesttherapyinstitute.com/en/home/)), [certified nature guide] (https://certifieradnaturguide.se/), and [Ölandsguide] (https://olandsguiderna.se/) and biologist. She has 17 years of experience guiding individuals and groups in the nature of Öland. We offer forest baths on several occasions throughout the year. Just as the seasons change, so too does the theme of the respective forest baths. Therefore, each forest bath becomes unique. You can join us on one or book more. During a forest bath, you move slowly, or are completely still. The tranquility and calm pace during a forest bath allows your body and your emotions to perceive all the small nuances of the forest and nature. You give your body and mind the opportunity to connect with nature. The Japanese name for forest bathing is Shinrin-Yoku (林) meaning “take in the forest atmosphere with all the senses” Many people experience a stress in everyday life. Almost all of your waking time, you are connected and the brain is fed with new information and new impressions. The brain is in full swing to be able to act. It can be difficult to find ways to recover. Invest in yourself with a sensual hike in the Mittlandsskogen. Let your brain and body get a break from stress and worry. Give yourself the opportunity to reconnect with nature and the forest. The guided forest bath can increase the effect of the stay in the forest. The guide's voice makes it harder for your own thoughts to wander off. Forest baths make it easier to relax and be in the present. It will be easier to focus on the sense impressions through the invitations. They become like a reminder to see, hear, smell and feel.
