We invite you to join us on a gentle, slow-paced journey through our garden sanctuary, designed to enhance the beautiful exchange between forest and people. This walk is crafted to slow your mind and body, decrease cortisol levels, and lower blood pressure, leaving you feeling recharged, grounded, and reconnected. There will be an opportunity to dip your toes into the gardens cascading water ways and grounding your bare feet into our rich jungle soil.
As you walk, our wellness partners will guide you through grounding and breath-work exercises and activities that engage all five senses. Experience the therapeutic practice of Forest Bathing, or Shinrin Yoku, which originated in Japan and adapted to the tropical forest here in Malaysia. This practice involves immersing yourself in the forest atmosphere and taking in its essence with all your senses. The effectiveness of Shinrin Yoku is largely due to aromatic organic compounds called phytoncides, which trees and plants emit to defend against pests and diseases. These same compounds have positive physiological effects on us.
This meditative practice helps you switch off, connect with nature, and support your well-being. Forest Bathing offers numerous benefits; studies have shown it reduces stress, lowers blood pressure, boosts the immune system, and improves mental health.
We end our sensory journey at the water garden, where we finish with a reflection and a Tropical Spice Garden-inspired Jungle tea ceremony.
