In this episode, we dive deep into the world of forest bathing with our special guest, Barb Rabicki, a seasoned nature therapy guide and wellness advocate. Forest bathing, also known as Shinrin-yoku, is the practice of immersing oneself in the natural environment to promote physical and mental well-being. Barb shares her extensive knowledge and personal experiences with forest bathing, explaining how this ancient Japanese practice can help us reconnect with nature and rejuvenate our minds, bodies, and souls.

Barb discusses the science behind forest bathing, revealing how the sights, sounds, and scents of the forest can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and boost our immune system. She also offers practical tips on how listeners can incorporate forest bathing into their daily lives, whether they live near a lush forest or in an urban environment.

Throughout the conversation, Barb emphasizes the importance of slowing down, being present, and engaging all of our senses to truly experience the healing power of nature. Whether you're a seasoned outdoor enthusiast or new to the concept of forest bathing, this episode is packed with valuable insights that will inspire you to step outside, breathe deeply, and embrace the restorative beauty of the natural world.

Barb and her husband, Laurie, have created an extremely special place near Dyers Bay, not far from Tobermory, Ontario. It's called Wild By Nature Forest Sanctuary.
