Shinrin-Yoku Forest Bathing Blend

Forest Bathing Blend
Shinrin Yoku 15 mL Oil

Shinrin-Yoku Oil

Shinrin-Yoku essential oil blend is inspired by shinrin-yoku (or forest bathing), the mindful practice of absorbing the calming atmosphere of natural places like the forest.

Connecting to nature for relaxation isn’t new. The practice of shinrin-yoku originated and was named in Japan in the early 1980s, popularized as a process for disconnecting from technology to relax and unwind. Decades of research and recent studies indicate being mindfully immersed in a forest likely has amazing health and well-being benefits.

This contemplative practice led to the transformative Shinrin-Yoku oil blend. Shinrin-Yoku essential oil blend is formulated with CPTG Certified Pure Tested Grade® essential oils rich in terpenes associated with forest bathing. Clinical research indicates diffusing terpene-rich essential oils promotes a calming environment when slowing down, focusing, and centering.

Terpenes are part of a class of important chemical compounds called phytoncides that serve as part of the tree’s defense system. These phytoncides include limonene, α-Pinene, and β-Pinene, which are often found in essential oils known for their comforting, grounding aromas.
