Forest Bathing Edinburgh

18/06/2026

When we walk outdoors the brain shifts into a naturally restorative state, soothed by the steady left‑right rhythm of our steps. Stress hormones ease and emotional processing are supported.

Walking also returns us to a natural pace our nervous system instinctively understands - neither rushed nor still. As we notice birdsong, fragmented sunlight, and the feel of the ground beneath us, the body receives a message of safety, and from there we can establish a sense of perspective and mental relief.

If you'd like to join a guided forest bathing walk, grounded in mindfulness techniques and taking in the benefits of walking and being amongst the trees, the booking links are in the first comment.

I look forward to meeting you.

Step into the calm of midsummer woodlands and restore your balance with our gentle, sensory-focused forest bathing walks.

We only take small groups on the sessions and spaces are filling up for July, so don’t miss your chance to reconnect with nature and find presence in the moment. Link in comments.

Experience: I sat under an oak tree every day for a year…After a period of burnout, I realised that nature knows what you need, and is always ready to offer it – you just have to be quiet enough to receive it

If you'd like to try forest bathing, sessions will be running throughout June and July.

June and July forest-bathing sessions are now available to book: try a 1-hour taster to slow down, reconnect with nature with a guided mindful walk and simple breathing exercises, and feel the difference.

Longer sessions help you unwind and let go, and Sunday evening sessions are designed for preparing mentally for the work week ahead.
