Overview

In the 1980s, the Japanese government coined the term Shinrin Yoku, which literally translates to Forest Bathing or “absorbing the forest atmosphere”. It is one of the purest ways of immersing ourselves in nature. Through forest bathing, we can get all the evidence-based health benefits of spending time in nature.

The experience is a 3-hour guided session in Antipolo, Rizal with Forest Bathing MNL and can be further customized with an add-on interaction with the local Dumagat community or activities at the Mount Purro Nature Reserve.
