A “bany de bosc” literally implies “absorbing the atmosphere of the forest” and is the translation of the Japanese concept of “Shinrin-Yoku”. The Japanese were pioneers in the use of the properties of forests as a therapy to improve human health and wellbeing. This is achieved through leisurely walks, conducted in silence, through unfrequented parts of a forest, while paying attention to it with all of your senses.  [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=”bg_color” bg_override=”ex-full” bg_color_value=”#ffffff”][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=”bg_color” bg_override=”ex-full” bg_color_value=”#63b980″][vc_column width=”1/6″][vc_empty_space height=”22px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/12″][vc_single_image image=”285547″ alignment=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”7/12″][vc_column_text] A “bany de bosc” therefore consists of immersing yourself in the essence of the forest, breathing deeply, inhaling, and rewarding yourself with the wellbeing produced by the volatile substances in its atmosphere, which can also penetrate deep inside you, via your skin. It is said that these substances can increase the number of NK (natural killer) cells and reinforce the human immune system. The benefits of forest bathing have also been related to cardioprotective and anti-diabetic effects, reducing stress, and generally improving human physiological and psychological wellbeing.  [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=”bg_color” bg_override=”ex-full” bg_color_value=”#63b980″][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1664784699645{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1678800667780{margin-top: 20px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”PLACES” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:24|text_align:center|color:%23575756″ google_fonts=”font_family:Quicksand%3A300%2Cregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal” css=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1678800667780{margin-top: 20px !important;}”][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1678800758267{padding-bottom: 0px !important;}” bg_color_value=”#63b980″][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”FOREST BATHS LOCATIONS” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:20|text_align:center|color:%23ffffff” google_fonts=”font_family:Quicksand%3A300%2Cregular%2C700|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_empty_space height=”22px”][vc_raw_html css=”.vc_custom_1678800844681{margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”]JTVCc2hvd19tYXBfYmFueXMlNUQ=[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1678800667780{margin-top: 20px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”ACTIVITIES” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:24|text_align:center|color:%23575756″ google_fonts=”font_family:Quicksand%3A300%2Cregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal” css=””][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””] We invite you to enjoy a range of outdoor activities such as forest bathing, yoga, Nordic walking, meditation, mindfulness, and mindful hiking.
