Nature connection supports us to foster an intimate and personal relationship with nature, ourselves and one another. Every person's experience is unique, but in case you are wondering how our past participants feel, here are some feedback we have received!
“Amanda guided us on an ‘UrbaNature Walk’ throughout the beautiful Hong Kong Botanical Gardens and Zoological Park in the heart of Hong Kong’s city centre. You may not be thinking it’s the most tranqil place but Amanda skilfully guided us to tune into our senses, become present and connect with how we were feeling amongst Mother Nature in an urban setting.
It was so refreshing to be able to disconnect from the outside world, my phone and the fast-paced rhythm of the city. After the forest bathing experience, I literally felt my heart rate slow down and any feelings of anxiety wash away.
I’m looking forward to doing more forest bathing and even just relish the pockets of nature in my own neighbourhood! If you’re in Hong Kong you should definitely look into Shinrin Yoku Hong Kong’s offerings. ”
