New forest therapy class offered at the Cibolo

Two questions often asked about Forest Therapy are “What and why should I be interested?”

We live in a fast-paced, stressful world, and it has only gotten worse over the past two years. Stress does so much harm to our bodies, interfering with our concentration, sleep, mood and energy levels. Pressure keeps our bodies in a constant “fight, flight or freeze” state, which causes longterm damage to our minds and bodies.

Scientific studies have shown that spending time in nature and slowing down reduces stress as measured by cortisol, the stress hormone. Time in nature can improve our energy levels, focus, mood, and blood pressure.
