What a beautiful forest therapy walk we had yesterday with the intention of walking with awareness, clarity, strength and wonder into Rosh Hashanah, 5785. I am so grateful for my tribe and so grateful for my relationship with the more than human world and especially sharing it with others during sacred thresholds.

"Another thing that is remarkable about forest bathing is it doesn’t just address one aspect of our health. In all of the studies I mentioned, participants didn’t just experience one single benefit – lower blood pressure, lower cortisol, etc. When one positive thing happened, it became a cascade and multiple body systems jumped on board too. I think this speaks to the powerful, holistic effect of forest bathing. While it’s not a panacea, it’s a powerful health tool that is free and simple to do."

Forest bathing - going for a walk in the forest - has innumerable health benefits. Discover what they are and how you can enjoy them.

Our Story

Welcome to Wild Wellness Guide. I am Sari Telpner, a Certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guide, Whole Health Educator™ and Reiki Healer and Teacher. My offerings focuses on whole person wellness. A central part of my practice is my work as a Certified ANFT Forest Therapy Guide. I guide groups and individuals on nature immersion walks, also known as “Forest Bathing, Forest Therapy or Shinrin Yoku.” This is a potent wellness practice for stress reduction, mood elevation, immune support and cardiovascular health. Forest bathing offers a beautiful and profound way to unplug, release, slow-down and connect to the natural world, oneself and others in a very unique way. http://www.natureandforesttherapy.org/

As a Whole Health Educator™ I facilitate and teach techniques for stress regulation, often referred to as, “Body Hacks.” These practices include breathwork, gratitude practice, mind-body techniques, practices for vagus nerve stimulation, embodiment practices to ground and center and guided nature immersion also known as Forest Therapy. These offerings help to calm the sympathetic nervous system, support mood and discover one’s full picture of wellness. As well as work with stress regulation, I educate my clients about The Five aspects of Health, Physical, Emotional, Nutritional, Environmental and Spiritual. I offer Reiki energy healing sessions in my practice as a Usui Holy Fire Reiki Master and teacher. This work offers blissful relaxation as it deeply calms the sympathetic nervous system. Reiki is very supportive for pain, sleep, anxiety and a very helpful complementary therapy for those dealing with cancer and chemotherapy. *Whole Health Educator ™ * “Whole Health Education is a registered trademark of the National Institute of Whole Health.” http://www.wholehealtheducation.com/
