Shinrin-yoku (森林浴)—which literally translates to “forest bath”—is the Japanese practice of “bathing” oneself in nature with the intention of receiving therapeutic benefits. Beginning in Japan in the 1980s (the word itself was coined by the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries in 1982), the practice of shinrin-yoku has since spread widely across the planet—there is now a wide range of guided tours operating within Japan and all over the world that teach the benefits of forest therapy. 🌱🍃 ( info via: Savvytokyo) . #earth#ourplanetourhome#ourplanetdaily#ecosystem#climatechange#climateaction#globalwarming#deforestation#reforestation#mothernature#nature#love#spirituality#trees#l4l#enviornmentalist#environment#shift#environmentalsustainability#sustainability#climatejustice#worldenvironmentday
