Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

Shinrin Yoku is the Japanese practice known as Forest Bathing or Forest Therapy. Shinrin means forest and Yoku means bath. It is an evidence-based therapeutic practice that connects people to forest environments through gentle sensory-based invitations. The intention of Shinrin Yoku is to deepen one’s connection with the forest.  

So, take a walk into the forest.  Relax, wander, observe. Focus on what you see, hear, smell and feel.  If you are lucky you might find faces of elves, fairies and nymphs carved into the knots on the trees.
