Nature-based wellbeing for your team
Support your people. Strengthen your culture. Reconnect with what matters.
The Reality of Modern Working Life
The way we work has changed — and so have the pressures many people face each day.
Over 70% of UK adults report feeling stressed or overwhelmed regularly (Mental Health Foundation)
Office workers now spend more than 9 hours a day on screens (Ofcom)
Hybrid and remote working can blur boundaries, leading to feelings of isolation, burnout, and digital fatigue
Stress doesn’t stay at work — it affects our bodies, minds, and relationships
Over time, this can reduce team energy, creativity, and morale, and increase absenteeism and turnover
Since the 1980s, the Japanese government has recognised the impact of tech-related stress, prescribing time in nature (known as shinrin-yoku, or ‘forest bathing’) as a way to restore balance and wellbeing.
Looking after your team’s wellbeing isn’t just good for business — it’s good for people. And when people feel better, they show up more fully: at work, at home, and in life.
Why Choose Forest Bathing
Many workplace wellbeing initiatives focus on improving performance. Forest Bathing takes a different approach, helping people feel better first, so they can naturally show up with more energy, focus, and motivation.
Time in nature has been scientifically proven to:
Lower stress levels and reduce blood pressure
Improve focus, creativity, and emotional resilience
Reduce feelings of anxiety, fatigue, and overwhelm
Boost immunity and overall well-being
Encourage connection with others and the natural world
Forest bathing offers more than just a break from routine. It gives your team simple, evidence-based techniques they can take away and use — at work or at home — to:
Reduce screen fatigue
Improve focus and rest
Feel more grounded and present

Participant Testimonials
-
"As a complete novice, I really enjoyed my first forest bathing experience. Being in the stunning woods on a peaceful bright autumnal morning and being guided and encouraged to really look, listen, smell, feel and take it all in was inspiring, calming and incredibly relaxing. My mind stitched off from the franticness of modern life and for a while I was just able to ‘be!’ Thank you."

"This was a lovely, calming session ‘off-grid’ - I even switched my phone off … There is a sense of awe standing in the forest and experiencing it through all the senses. Taking the time to take in the range of colours, sounds, textures and scents was wonderful and, at times, nostalgic. It was a lovely way to connect with myself and with nature - thank you."

"The small group setting allowed for a personal and immersive experience, and Chantelle's expertise enriched the session. By the end, I felt a noticeable reduction in stress and a renewed sense of calm. It was a gentle yet powerful way to reset and find balance."
