What is Nature Therapy?
Nature Therapy, also known as Forest Bathing or Nature Bathing, invites you to slow down and reconnect with the living world through your senses.
Guided by Theresa, a certified Kripalu Mindful Outdoor Guide, this mindful experience supports stress relief, somatic awareness, and a deepening bond with the natural world.
The Healing Power of Nature Connection
Breathing as Your Anchor
At the core of this practice is the breath, a constant companion that ties you to the eternal present moment. The autonomic nervous system, operating beneath conscious awareness, dramatically influences your overall well-being. Through nature-based practices like Forest Bathing, the sympathetic (fight or flight) response is lowered, while the parasympathetic (rest and digest) response is enhanced. This regulation leads to reduced stress and a greater sense of balance.
Intention and Gratitude
As you embark on this journey, take a moment to reflect on the gifts the Earth bestows upon us. Practicing gratitude allows us to connect with the profound beauty and abundance surrounding us. This practice not only improves physical and emotional health but also boosts self-esteem and resilience. By acknowledging the generosity of the natural world, you open yourself to a deeper level of connection.

Mindful Walking and Sensory Awakening
Bare feet walking slowly on pine-needle-covered ground or beach sand.
This is not a hike—it is a meditation in motion. As you step softly, listen, breathe, and observe, your senses awaken to the rhythm of the living world.
Theresa’s nature therapy offerings are shaped by a deep love of wild places and decades of somatic and wellness experience.
Her presence is warm, grounded, and intuitively attuned to the needs of each individual.
“Whether the forest floor or shoreline sand, nature whispers us back to ourselves—one breath, one step, one wave at a time.”
