Healing Forest Poem
Download link of the healing forest poem given at the very end.

For thousands of years our ancestors lived and thrived in the wilderness. Endless grasslands, dense forests and vast stretches of green were an integral part of a place we called home.

But in today’s world, the green spaces are replaced by urban structures, crowded places and polluted environments. This rapid change puts an unwanted pressure on our body and mind. As a result we have seen that anxiety, stress, depression, burnout, chronic illnesses and other ailments are on the rise. Also as a society, there is an increase in anger, addictions, intolerance, apathy, and loneliness. Living in a hyper-connected era, aren’t we getting disconnected from what is truly important?

Let’s see what nature can do for you. Countries around the world are uncovering scientific proof about nature’s healing effects. Japan and South Korea have even created many healing forests where they practice forest bathing or healing forest walks. For our overloaded minds and overworked bodies, nature can yield surprising results.

  1. Vivo en un país maravilloso, COLOMBIA, tenemos 2 mares, tres cordilleras, 3 climas permanentes, llano, selva Amazónica, grandes rios, nevados, etc. Vivo en Bogotá ciudad capital de 10 millones de habitantes, el tráfico causa mucho estres, cuando puedo salgo a dar la vuelta a la sabana de Bogotá, paaso por varios pueblos pintorescos como: Suba, Cota, Tenjo, Tabio, Cajicá, Sopó, Briceño y Bogotá de nuevo, el solo hecho de ver el verde de los campos y árboles es mi mejor anti estres.

  2. Thank you for your beautiful movie. I am so glad that, on one point in my life, there were dogs. Everyday we have a walk in the forest. And as a yogateacher and coach I take my clients very often into the woods. Because I already noticed the healing powers of nature. And I want to share this. Like you did in this beautiful way with the movie. Now I feel supported too. I will share this movie and do my best of spreading the word. Go on and I meet you here on this website again. 🙂
