Mer om författaren

The Forest Bathing Institute (TFBI) was founded by Gary Evans and Olga Terebenina, who set out to advance the Japanese practice of Shinrin Yoku (Forest Bathing) in the UK, and started a programme of research dedicated to replicating the original physiological research carried out in Japan. Gary and Olga are peer-reviewed authors and are committed to furthering research into the effectiveness of this nature-based therapy.In just a few years, TFBI has trained hundreds of Forest Bathing+ guides worldwide, with many more in training. The Institute also works hard to raise awareness of the effectiveness of Forest Bathing+ and works closely with local and central government, charities and key policy makers to make Forest Bathing+ available to as many people who can benefit as possible.
