RECHARGE NEW ENERGY WITH FOREST BATHING IN MUNICH
Just 15 km from Munich's vibrant city center, the Hotel München Süd is an absolute haven of tranquility. Surrounded by lush greenery in the summer and immersed in nature, the Waldgasthof Buchenhain is located between sparsely wooded areas, just a few meters from the Isar River. The forest is an ideal place to relax and recharge.
WHAT IS FOREST BATHING?
The complete immersion in the forest is also known as forest Baden This term is derived from a Japanese phenomenon that describes the positive health effects of the forest on the human psyche. Forest bathing, however, does not mean literally bathing in the forest, but rather Immerse yourself in the forest with all of your senses and the conscious experience of nature. Essentially, it's a long, slow walk during which you focus on smells, sounds, and colors. Scientists have discovered that this can provide a distraction from everyday stress, increase well-being, lower blood pressure, and strengthen the immune system.
