Nature Therapy for ADHD Restoration

Forest Bathing is a research-based framework for supporting healing and wellness through immersion in natural environments. Also known as Nature or Eco Therapy, this modality is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku (loose translation: forest bathing).

Forest Bathing is more than just 'going for a walk'. It is an opportunity to slow down physically and mentally, through a series of guided invitations using your senses. We will practice easy techniques to help you regulate your parasympathetic nervous system. During this calming time, you will experience how spending time in nature can improve your physical and mental resilience.

ADHD-brains especially benefit, and studies have demonstrated a wide array of health benefits, including:
* Improved cognition, creativity, focus and productivity
* Feeling recharged, restored energy levels, and better sleep
* Increased ability to manage anxiety, burnout, anger, grief, depression, fatigue
* Decreased stress hormones, regulated blood pressure (low and high), and other chronic health challenge improvements
* Gained sense of connection, curiosity, and awe

Forest Bathing is lead by Mileva Huljev, who holds a Guide certification through the Association for Nature & Forest Therapy (ANFT) and is also an Executive Function Skills / ADHD Coach with Family Psychological Services of Kirkland.
