Sacred
Nature- Based Practices

Long before wellness was a trend, our ancestors turned to the earth for renewal — walking barefoot, brewing herbs, and sitting in silence beneath the trees.

Nature reminds us that healing does not always come through effort, but through presence and relationship.

At Sacral SOULmatic Support, I weave this ancient wisdom with modern ecotherapy. We approach nature not just as a place to visit, but as a living relative, a reflection of our own cycles, resilience, and belonging.

As a Certified Forest Bathing Instructor and Ecotherapeutic Guide, I lead individuals and groups in reconnecting with the natural world to restore balance, clarity, and belonging.

What Is Nature-Based Healing?

Nature-Based Healing is a trauma-informed, somatic approach to wellness that draws from ecotherapy, ancestral wisdom, and mindfulness in outdoor environments. Through intentional time in natural spaces, we support nervous system regulation, emotional release, and deeper connection to Self and Source.

Why Nature?

Because nature is a mirror.
 

Because the body speaks most clearly in stillness.
 

Because we are not separate from the earth; we are of it.
 

Because the trees breathe out what we breathe in.


Because healing doesn’t have to feel like struggle.

The Journey of Forest Bathing: From Ancient Wisdom to Modern Wellness

Forest Bathing, or Shinrin-Yoku, is a therapeutic practice that originated in Japan in the 1980s. Developed by Dr. Qing Li and researchers from the Japanese Forest Agency, it was introduced as a public health initiative to reduce stress and help people reconnect with nature. The practice involves intentionally slowing down and engaging all five senses to experience the forest — noticing the sound of leaves, the texture of bark, the scent of soil, and the feeling of air on the skin. Studies led by Dr. Li show that time in forests can lower cortisol (the body’s stress hormone), regulate blood pressure, improve immune response, and support overall well-being. Unlike hiking or exercise, Forest Bathing is not about distance or speed; it’s about presence and sensory awareness — a simple, science-backed way to calm the nervous system and restore balance.
