'Forest Bathing' at the U of M Landscape Arboretum
As part of the University of Minnesota Landscape Arboretum?s Nature Heals Initiative, the arboretum is offering ?forest bathing? courses that allow people to explore a stronger, more meaningful connection with nature. The term ?forest bathing? is inspired by the Japanese concept of ?shinrin yoku? which means taking in the atmosphere of the forest, often times as a form of therapy.
