That makes total sense. My friend Sara Wesche (editor at @MidwestVertical) signed up for a forest bathing certification. I love how all my outdoorsy friends are on the same page!

We should connect! I’d love to talk to her about which program and why.

I think she starts this month. Next time you’re in town let’s all hike together!

Thank you, my favorite part: "The Japanese call it shinrin-yoku, or "forest bathing," and all it requires is for you to show up and let the world hold you for a while." I take a walk in the woods everyday. I'm lucky that way.
