I am Lula living in Basel and I am a Forest bathing guide.

While living in a Switzerland and enjoying beautiful hikes with a big expat groups I discovered that something was missing. I much more enjoyed just sitting quietly during the breaks, looking around me, smelling the flowers, playing with butterflies and immersing in the nature. I felt home while being in the nature but I missed quiet slow walks and looking around, touching, smelling. I wanted to start expat hiking group for slow, joyful walks discussing about what is around us and not our jobs and everyday life in Switzerland. 🙂 

Then I discovered Forest bathing and that was exactly that and it even had a name!

Just before this discovery, I had an accident and was in bed for months, learning to walk again. I remember how I missed going for forest walks and could not wait for my first walk. The first walk was very very slow and careful and it felt like a magic, seeing everything around me in much more detail then before, feeling earth under every step I took, all thanks to slowing down.

I would love to share that with others, who love the nature by are literally running through it, missing a lot…. 🙂
