Forest bathing｜Shinrin Yoku｜The IM-WALD-SEIN® toolbox. For a naturally healthy life!

“Health is certainly not everything, but without health everything means nothing,” as German philosopher, Arthur Schopenhauer once said. Nevertheless, we often find it difficult to lead a health-conscious life, to give up bad habits and let good habits into our everyday lives. Sometimes we simply lack the knowledge and willingness to deal with “such things.” But no more! With IM-WALD-SEIN®, Dr. Melanie H. Adamek has created a toolbox with which we can recognise, experience, reflect on, and enjoy the tangible health benefits that the forest offers us.

The IM-WALD-SEIN® Toolbox provides you with everything you need to stay healthy and in harmony with nature.

When it comes to health and staying healthy, we immediately think of nutrition and exercise. We have to fast, jog, walk, overcome our inner laziness, stick with it and optimize ourselves. If we want to work on our health in a “targeted” way, we go to the gym, do yoga or take a Pilates classes - active health care, in other words. Time to rethink! It is time to reconsider these notions! Enjoying time in the forest not only has a relaxing, energizing and inspiring effect, it also acts as a natural aromatherapy that measurably refreshes our cells.

Shinrin Yoku｜Forest bathing｜Forest health training｜IM-WALD-SEIN® impressions and fans

After reading this, you just want to set off and be in the forest...

Speaking about the non-fiction book

IM-WALD-SEIN

Highly recommended! I am impressed by the well-founded and yet very entertaining presentation of the complex and important topics of forests and health. After reading it, you will want to set off straight away and be in the forest ... On forest medicine: I like to spend a lot of time in nature, but was initially rather sceptical about forest bathing because of its slightly esoteric feel. After this book was recommended to me, I was surprised to find that forest bathing is not just about some far-fetched or complicated practices, it really has substance: how and why can the forest do us good and even heal us? How can we utilise this potential effectively and in the best possible way for ourselves? I always knew that forests were good for you - but what was new to me was the fact that spending time in the forest has been proven to strengthen the immune system. This is described in the book competently and in a way that is easy to understand, even for non-medical professionals. The author tested it herself in an experiment with friends and had this experiment scientifically monitored – it was a very interesting read!

... found a good health program that complements my running training perfectly...

Speaking about the

IM-WALD-SEIN audio guide

I have the IM-WALD-SEIN audio guide and the diary, and I use both regularly. Anja and Melanie's voices bring you down and make being in the forest even more relaxing. The forest is my favourite place to fill in the diary. I'm delighted to have found such a good health programme that complements my running training so well!

Speaking about the

IM-WALD-SEIN experience diary

An amazing book that has inspired me to have intensive, mindful forest experiences. Although I have always spent a lot of time travelling in the great outdoors, this little book has helped me to reflect on the many attractions of the forest. It reminds me once again how much a walk in the forest can be a “vacation for the soul.”

Absolute purchase recommendation for people who, like me, enjoy being in nature and are open to new ideas

Speaking about the

IM-WALD-SEIN audio guide

The audio guide: a good practical tool for winding down and recharging your batteries in the forest. It includes movement, breathing and awareness exercises for walks in the forest. The content is well spoken without any annoying mindfulness blah-blah, but with lots of positive ideas and explanations about the forest. The authors don't impose anything on you. You can do everything at your own pace and with your own focus. I use the programme to improve my health, as I can no longer go on long hikes due to a slipped disc, but I need nature to clear my head and feel good. I vary the exercises depending on how much time I have. I've already been out in a few forests and after two or three hours I feel like I've had a short holiday. It's amazing that the programme works everywhere. Highly recommended for anyone interested in Shinrin Yoku and forest bathing or people who, like me, enjoy being out in nature and are open to new ideas.

Very beautifully made and cleverly written book on the trending topic of "forest and health". I was particularly interested in the health-promoting effects of terpenes, which are explained here in a scientific (but easy to understand) way. Overall, a very informative, factual book that makes you want to spend more time in the forest. It is also attractively and qualitatively designed, and you just enjoy picking it up.
