Bring the forest indoors

You can create the forest effect at home with different types of plants. Indoor plants will make you feel calmer and happier. Plants can aid breathing as they absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. That’s why you feel like you can breathe easier, focus better, and are simply happier in a room full of nature.

Here are a few examples of indoor plants with the benefits:

Nature Indoors
Peace lily – extremely effective as air purifier and the flower is known as symbol of peace.
Nature Indoors
Chrysanthemum – reduces pollutive properties of the air. Symbolise happiness and joy

Bring outside smells indoors

If you are unable to go to an actual forest or outdoor location, you can bring the smell of the forest into your home by using essential oils. Here is a diffuser blend created by me for you to use to create a forest atmosphere at home:

Add this blend to your diffuser and let the smell of the forest surround you in the comfort of your home.

And that is all you need to know about the mysterious Japanese art of Shinrin-Yoku.

About the Author: Inga Jungaitiene

I am a Yoga teacher, Holistic and Sound therapist, and a newly qualified Forest Therapist guide. I live in Northern Ireland and in the past ten years I have worked with people of all ages and abilities to improve health, wellbeing, peace of mind and relaxation in order to bring some positive changes to their lives. As a Holistic practitioner I believe that the purpose of any holistic treatment (massage, sound therapy, forest therapy or yoga) is to create balance and harmony in order to prevent illness or disease in the whole person, mind, body and soul both on a physical and emotional level. I love my mindful walks in the morning, I am in love with the MOON and I meditate by creating yoga inspired Mala beads. My favourite quote: Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind and spirit! I have singed up to do a Cold Water Challenge in March to fundraise for Cancer research UK.
