Dive into the heart of the forest for a unique natural therapy: forest bathing. Discover how the benefits of nature can soothe the mind and provide a deep sense of well-being.
Breathe in, breathe out, meditate
The practice of forest bathing, also known as sylvotherapy, can bring unexpected benefits to our body and mind. In contact with trees and the surrounding nature, we can feel renewed, a reconnection with our inner self. In Alsace, the region is blessed with beautiful forests composed of firs, oaks, beeches, and chestnuts, making it the ideal place to initiate or continue this ancient practice.
Walking in the forest, breathing fresh air, listening to the sounds of nature, feeling the coolness of sunlight through the branches… all this contributes to creating a calm and beautiful landscape where every color finds its place. Alsace therefore offers a natural setting conducive to relaxation, serenity, and inner harmony.
Experience 100: Learning to relax in the Petite-Pierre forest
During an experience in the Northern Vosges forest, near La Petite-Pierre, one can learn to relax and reconnect with the surrounding nature. The sylvotherapists gently guide us in this relaxation session by inviting us to close our eyes, listen to our breathing, and attune ourselves to the rhythm of nature. Touching the trees, breathing in the scent of plants, walking barefoot on the ground… all these practices help us develop a natural sensitivity towards trees and strengthen our immunity to stress.
Thanks to this experience, we learn to relax in the forest environment and cultivate an intimate relationship with the trees. The forest then becomes a source of well-being and healing for our body and mind.
Experience 101: Cultivating our relationship with nature in Haguenau
Haguenau, located in the heart of the Haguenau forest, is the ideal place to cultivate our relationship with nature. This forest, which stretches 30 km from west to east and 10 km from north to southeast, is labeled “Exceptional Forest®”. Here, we have the opportunity to participate in workshops to learn to recognize wild herbs and even to make our own essential oil.
This unique experience allows us to breathe differently, to relax, and to listen to our body resonate with the living wood. In this true green lung, nothing is imposed and everything is possible. The goal of this experience is to cultivate our desire for nature and to immerse ourselves deeply in the benefits of the forest.
