Nature has been a place of adventure and fun for me since childhood. After leaving a job in education, where stress and burnout had taken their toll, I worked for an outdoor adventure company. That’s when I began to notice nature’s restorative side. The moments I treasured most were when everyone had gone home, and I was left alone in nature. In the silence I could rest, wander and explore. I began researching the topic, and discovered forest bathing. After gaining accreditation, I now guide others to experience the healing benefits of time in nature. It has been life changing, personally and professionally.

I know how overwhelming life can feel, and I’ve experienced nature’s power to restore balance for myself. My gentle, guided walks help you slow down, quiet your mind and release tension through sensory immersion, one mindful step at a time.

Forest bathing brings together my psychology degree, my teaching background and my love for the environment. My understanding of the mind helps you find calm and clarity, and my teaching experience means you’ll be guided gently and inclusively. It is also a practice of reciprocity: the forest helps us find balance, and in return we care for the forest, its trees, plants, animals and all who live there.
