Nev Hoffman, Certified Forest Therapy Guide
Here at Blue Fern, I spend my time helping people experience the wellness benefits of Guided Forest Bathing.
Many people ask: “Isn’t Forest Bathing just like walking in the woods?” And that’s exactly what I thought too, that is, until I tried it.
Despite having spent my entire life in the woods, after just a few guided Forest Bathing sessions it’s like my eyes were opened and I was full immersed and experiencing nature for the first time.
I noticed for hours and even days after a session I felt calm, grounded, and peaceful. I knew the forest accepted me and that I had found home again.
I hope to meet you soon and have tea in the forest together.
Yours in Trees & Tea

Blue Fern Forest Bathing – Where the Forest Meets the Water
Humans were meant to spend time outdoors.
Science has proven what each of us already instinctively knows: spending time outdoors in nature not only has a positive effect on our entire being, but it connects us more deeply to the earth and to each other.
Guided Forest Bathing is an emerging personal wellness practice that is gaining popularity world wide. It is a researched based nature immersion practice that decreases stress, lowers heart rate & blood pressure, has a positive effect on our immune system and general sense of well being.
Blue Fern Forest Bathing sessions create a safe yet expansive space where you can slow down, breathe in nature, and quiet your mind and see what unfolds in the process. Each guided session is roughly 2-3 hours and includes sensory invitations, slow forest walking immersion, a tea gathering and nature connection with the “more than human world.”
