Description:Shinrin Yoku: "taking in the forest atmosphere", the medicine of simply being in the forest, "forest bathing".From the healing properties of phytoncides (self-protective compounds emitted by plants) to the ways we can benefit from what forest spaces can teach us, Forest Bathing: The Rejuvenating Practice of Shinrin Yoku discusses the history, science and philosophy behind this age-old therapeutic practice.
