At Wanderoots, we embrace a holistic approach to wellness,
placing nature at the core of every journey. Our mission is to
nurture the mind, body, and soul by fostering deep connections
with the natural world, helping individuals rediscover balance
and thrive in a world that often disconnects us from these roots.
Our Beginning
Wanderoots was established in 2024 to provide education and guidance to individuals and groups on the benefits of forest therapy. We strive to create opportunities for everyone to connect to nature and in doing so, contribute to better mental and physical health for all but also a desire to care for our natural environment.
Our goal is to connect participants with nature as a way to cope with the effects of stress, anxiety and depression.
The benefits
Forest therapy, also known as forest bathing or Shinrin-yoku, offers numerous physical and mental health benefits. Immersing oneself in nature helps reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and boost the immune system by exposing the body to phytoncides—natural compounds released by trees. The calming environment enhances mood, promotes mindfulness, and improves focus, making it an effective way to combat anxiety and depression. Additionally, spending time in forests fosters a deeper connection with nature, encouraging relaxation and overall well-being.
