How were the beginnings of the project and for what purpose was it carried out?
Baño de Bosque came to life in Argentina in 2019 after detaching itself as a business unit from the Instituto Puede Ser (Centre for training in soft skills and well-being) founded by Mgter and Ontological Coach María Guillermina Romera. Together with Lic. Silvana Pacheco, Director of Kalyaan BA (Conscious Space for Psychophysical Well-being) they developed a connection and health program in order to apply the mindfulness in natural and urban environments to bring well-being and happiness to people, either on a personal or organizational level.
What are the benefits that Forest Bath offers to the people who attend?
The practice of Forest Bathing arouses great interest, due to the scientifically proven benefits worldwide, on the effect that full attention applied to nature produces on our physical, emotional, intellectual and environmental well-being when we do it on a recurring basis.
Our proposal has three areas: forest bathing sessions, national certification in technical training, and Corporate Well-being.
We created a national wellness network to offer forest bathing sessions through our Forest Bathing Coaches, being the only institution in Argentina that offers this certification.
In addition, we offer Corporate Wellness with practices specifically designed according to the particular needs of each organization. The programs seek to achieve progressive learning that aims to increase the well-being and performance of people through the improvement of skills and knowledge to achieve a healthy lifestyle. We integrate disciplines such as coaching, mindfulnessneuroscience and positive psychology, to develop and strengthen the core skillsthat is, the fundamental skills that promote the happiness experienced when developing the specific tasks of each collaborator, which translates into greater commitment and work performance.
Modernity presents endless opportunities, yet most of us feel restless, nervous, fearful as if we were trapped. We want to find the meaning that gives our life calm and satisfaction, although the obligations give us the impression of being inescapable and crushing with each passing day. We feel disconnected from nature and that causes us to close our senses. The practice of Forest Bath helps us to reconnect with that desired well-being and to get closer to all the scientifically proven benefits that it brings to our health.
