3 years ago


The practice of venturing deep into the woods to bathe in the refreshing energy of trees is widely embraced for its long list of healing benefits.


What’s commonly referred to as "forest bathing" has been known to:

  • reduce stress
  • improve mood
  • increase mental focus
  • strengthen immunity
  • inspire creativity
  • improve sleep
  • boost energy
  • enhance intuition

Since we don’t always have time to get lost in the forest, we have some tips for bringing forest bathing into your home to help you connect with the vibrance of our planet.

How to Bring Forest Bathing into Your Home Goddess Provisions


Here are 5 of our favorite ways to create enchanting forest vibes at home:

1. Decorate with Forest Treasures

Adorn your walls, shelves, and windows with beautiful reminders of nature’s deep-rooted and balanced beauty. Pine cones, leaves, flowers, seeds, moss, sticks, and stones are natural treasures we love to keep around.

To help you fill your space with reminders of the planet's abundant gifts, the Earth Magic Box is full of goodies to help you connect with Mama Gaia, or subscribe to our March Nature Magick Box.

2. Surround Yourself with Purifying Plants

The lively color of green plants creates a serene and welcoming atmosphere. Some plants even provide a cleaner and safer environment by filtering the air.

NASA scientists have confirmed that a variety of plants actually help to remove irritating toxins from indoor spaces. Some of our favorites are Kimberly Queen Ferns, Flamingo Lilies, Broadleaf Lady Palms, and Peace Lilies, just to name a few.

Plants are not only great natural air filters, they also increase oxygen and humidity levels which can result in a better mood, increased productivity and enhanced overall well-being. When selecting plants to take home, please keep in mind that some don’t play so well with furry friends, so be sure to do your research.

For an energetic cleanse, you can also burn an herb bundle made with woodsy herbs like sage, palo santo, pine, rosemary, cedar, or juniper to clear out negativity and create space for healing.

3. Breathe In Healing Forest Scents

Many trees, especially evergreens, naturally release aromatic chemicals called phytoncides that help them defend against insects, animals, and decomposition.

These phytoncides are made of a component called terpene which has been shown to increase the immune responses to illnesses. Essential oils also contain terpene allowing us to enjoy antibacterial, antimicrobial, and antifungal benefits at home.

To help you experience the revitalizing benefits of forest aromas, check out this Forest Bathe Evergreen Mist to bring the magnificence of those tall beauties right to your nose. Spritz this blend of essential oils throughout the day to re-ground your senses and connect to your root chakra.

4. Stock Up on Earthy Products

Forests are brimming with vibrancy. In such a healthy ecosystem you’ll find an abundance of nutrients, minerals, and antioxidants to refresh and revitalize the physical body. Outside of their medicinal properties, gifts from the forest can offer a sense of grounding and interconnectedness with the earth.


Fill your pantry and medicine cabinet with things like tinctures and herbal tea blends that use tree barks and roots, beauty products with cleansing clays and elixir blends that have medicinal mushrooms (like chaga, reishi, and lion’s mane).

5. Create a Distraction-free Zone

Unplug. Put down your phone, computer, or tablet and turn off the TV. Do a digital detox for 30 minutes, an hour, or maybe even a full day!

Take a break from the artificial blue light on your screen and all the stories and stimuli that distract you from the beauty of the present moment.

Read a book, journal, draw, or just listen to the sounds of nature outside your windows. Try an activity that engages all five senses. However you do it, create some space in your life to get quiet, connect with yourself, and tap into the realness of being ALIVE!
