REMEMBER…if you don’t want to go to the woods alone, visiting your local park or even your own garden will do perfectly. More so if you are “heading off the beaten track” and signal may be an issue. Even with a phone, it is not a bad idea to tell someone else your plans before you leave. Plot your route in advance and tell friends or family exactly where you’re planning to go, what time and for how long. If you decide to do this, please be sensible. Whilst I recommend turning your phone to aeroplane mode, you may feel comfortable leaving your phone at home. a small, waterproof picnic mat (or a camping chair if getting down to ground level isn’t easy).Wear comfortable clothes suitable for the weather and take two extra layers.Įnsure you also have a good rucksack or backpack and take with you: If you are cold, you won’t be able to relax into the experience. I cannot overstate the importance of wrapping up warm. Before you set off…īefore you go Forest Bathing alone, here are some practicalities to consider. Forest Bathing is one method of Nature Connection. This type of nature-based mindfulness that’s easily accessible to all is commonly known as Nature Connection. You can adapt the suggested activities and carry them all out in your garden or any safe, quiet, outdoor space.
Something to note: you can do a version of Forest Bathing without a forest, so please don’t let the lack of access to a woodland put you off. And, there’s a free guide you can view, print (or photograph to save paper) and take with you, to help you stay focused. My mission is to ensure as many people as possible benefit from this nature-based practice, so here are 5 simple steps to going Forest Bathing session alone…guiding you through and showing you what to do, without me being there. I love running my group Forest Bathing sessions and creating a ‘togetherness’ within the group, but I understand there are times when you want or need to go Forest Bathing alone.
