10 Reasons to Engage in Forest Bathing

Forest bathing has become very popular in the United States, especially in metropolitan areas. Individuals, families, or friends go to the forest for therapeutic hikes and nature walks. This concept was first introduced in 1982 by Japanese professor Yoshifumi Miyazaki as Shinrin-Yoku, or forest bathing.

Here are 10 reasons why stepping outside into nature is crucial for improving your and your family's health:

  1. Relieve stress
  2. Boost immunity
  3. Enhance focus
  4. Encourage healthier eating habits
  5. Calm the mind
  6. Aid in weight management
  7. Improve short-term memory
  8. Improve vision
  9. Combat natural disaster obstacles
  10. Extend lifespan
Find time to walk outdoors and replace the time spent indoors on electronic devices with forest walks. Make forest bathing a new hobby; exploring nature is definitely beneficial. Both your mind and body will thank you. Fusen Purifying Ecological Wellness Village offers a new lifestyle that combines ecological nature, artistic performances, and traditional Chinese medicine health care, along with accommodation and plant-based dining services, providing travelers with new options for health promotion.
