Nature Forest

Forest bathing is a gentle, meditative practice of connecting with nature. Simply being present with all of our senses, in a forest or other wild area, can produce mental, emotional, and physical health benefits. It is a simple, accessible antidote to our nature-starved lives and can inspire us to become advocates for healing our relationships with the more-than-human world. This book is both an invitation to take up the practice of forest bathing and an inspiration to connect with nature as a way to help heal both the planet and humanity.

The soothing steady sound of the rain, the constant splashing and plopping of the raindrops makes the soul and the mind calm down and thus also has a gradually relaxing effect on the body. The rain triggers in us thoughts - imagination - such as freshness, tranquility, growth and purity. This imagination promotes a healing power within us. Let this soothing sound of nature lead you into a healthy sleep. The regularity and recurring multi-layered rhythm of the rain sound resonates your body and allows your breathing to become harmonious. Nerves are calmed, stress flows away.

We often associate beautiful memories with nature sounds. Together with relaxation music in 432Hz, these gradually have the effect of lowering blood pressure, breathing becomes more even and thus lead body and mind into a beneficial relaxation. The sounds of nature affect our body in many different ways: they bring us to rest, gradually reduce stress in everyday life, bring us to beautiful thoughts and we can let go of the day's events.

Sloths are the slowest mammals on earth. They can hardly see. They live in rainforests among jaguars, pumas, and countless other predators. Yet they survive.

Rabbits race away from danger on the forest floor. But there is more to these big-eared bunnies than escaping predators. Learn about these adorable woodland animals, their life cycle, diet, and appearance.

California’s coast redwoods are Earth's tallest living beings, some reaching more than 350 feet high. They can also live for more than 2,000 years, outlasting entire civilizations. In this episode, we spend an evening with an ancient tree. Below ground, its roots tap into a forest-wide network; above ground, its branches harbor life in its many forms.
