Slow down and reconnect with nature! Enjoy a wellness experience in the forests of Bergamos Parco dei Colli, through leisurely walks, mindful listening and sensory activities.
Would you like to take a break from your daily routine and spend a few hours immersed in nature? Discover Forest Bathing, a wellness experience that invites you to slow down, awaken your senses and embrace the present moment.
This practice originated in Japan in the 1980s under the name Shinrin-yoku, which literally means “forest bathing”. The idea is simple: immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the forest, let its sounds, colours and scents surround you, and rediscover a sense of calm and connection with nature.
But you don’t have to travel all the way to Japan to experience it! Just a short distance from the city, Bergamo’s Parco dei Colli welcomes you with its woodlands, trails and landscapes, which change colours and atmosphere with the passing seasons.
Accompanied by Ghislaine Nothomb, a CSEN-certified Forest Wellness Guide, you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in nature through leisurely walks, moments of mindful listening and simple sensory activities. Let yourself be surprised by the sounds of the forest, the scents of the vegetation and the different shapes and textures of natural elements.
The aim of the experience is to take some time for yourself, find your own rhythm and rediscover the pleasure of being outdoors.
Throughout the experience, individual moments will alternate with opportunities to share your thoughts and feelings with others, always on a voluntary basis. Each session will focus on a seasonal theme, inviting you to observe nature and its transformations from a different perspective.
