About
Nature Therapy for Wellness
Nature Therapy for Wellness is a six-week course offered in Towson, Monkton, and Owings Mills that integrates nature connection with mindfulness and other resiliency practices to assist people with stress, anxiety, depression, and pain.
​
Each session is 90 minutes and led by a team of licensed and certified Nature Informed Therapists. The program includes guided relaxation, mostly mindfulness and breathing techniques, forest bathing invitations, therapeutic group conversations, information about stress and stress reactions, a healthy lifestyle, as well as nature’s role in health and stress reduction. Participants report leaving the course with a newfound appreciation for the healing capacity of nature in addition to having better tools to manage mental health challenges.
“In two years of working together, I have never seen my client light up as much as she did when she would discuss her experience in the 6 week NBSR program. Not only did it provide an opportunity for her to be in nature on a weekly basis, it gave her the opportunity to be with other like-minded individuals and practice forming meaningful connections. I am excited to see what other resources she might be open to exploring after having such a positive experience with NBSR and we will definitely continue to emphasize nature as “co-therapist” in the rest of our work together!”
