ARSENE ALINA-MARGARETA

We are a company dedicated to reconnecting people with the natural world through guided forest therapy sessions and educational nature excursions. Our mission is to reawaken people's fascination with nature and bring them back into the forest.

With 25 years of experience in plant life, including biology, cultivation, and protection, I serve as a Forest Therapy Guide. My husband, a professor of botany and ecology  joins me in this endeavor.

Our belief is that the forest is the true therapist, and my role as a guide is simply to open the door. Forest therapy, inspired by the Japanese practice of shinrin-yoku (forest bathing), is a guided, conscious immersion in nature that typically lasts about 3 hours.  It's an invitation to slow down, awaken our senses, and be fully present as we allow ourselves to be carried by our sensations. We let nature do the work, healing and recharging us. Ultimately, we disconnect from urban and emotional noise and, through the forest, reconnect with our inner selves.

In addition to forest therapy, we offer educational workshops about nature and art-therapy sessions, providing a holistic approach to well-being in the natural environment.
