FOREST BATHING RETREAT

An inspiring collection of writings based on the theme of nature as a healing power. Taking lead from the mindful, Japanese practise of shinrin-yoku, Hannah Fries takes us on a tour of why the forests are special places for people to retreat to. Complete with beautiful photographs and excerpts of poetry, alongside uplifting quotations from artists, naturalists, scientists, philosophers, Japanese haiku maestros, Romantics, American Transcendentalists and many more. A terrific present for any nature-lover.
