“Having a deep appreciation for the outdoors I thought I had seen it all. To my surprise I found my eyes, ears, nose and heart were open to a whole new way to enjoy a walk in the woods through the Forest Bathing experience. Phyllis is an excellent guide on this journey.”

“My Forest Bathing with Phyllis Abramson has totally changed the way the Blue Heron Nature Preserve utilizes its space. This experience is now at the foundation of a Pillar of Health and Wellness on which we base our public programs. Forest Bathing has opened my eyes and many others’ to new levels of awareness and a new way to understand our place in nature. No matter who you are or where you are in life, I encourage you to give this a try.”

“Oh, the Glories of nature…..it’s all around us but for me, I truly discovered it on the Forest Bathing Walks I took with Phyllis! She shared the full Wonder of the Nature of the Forest as she led us through our experience. The Forest Bathing Outing gave me a wonderful opportunity to meditate surrounded by beauty as Phyllis guided us. I felt like I was having my very own experience even though there were others in the group. After two Forest Bathing outings, I can’t wait for my third one!”

“I was curious to learn about Forest Bathing since I heard an NPR interview about the practice that sounded interesting. I signed up for a walk in Piedmont Park with Phyllis and I noticed things in the park that I had never noticed in the 50 years I had been walking the same paths. Besides being so much calmer at the end of the walk I also felt that I learned some wonderful ways to observe nature.”
