Nature-based experiences are intentional moments of connection with the natural world that support well-being, reflection, and personal growth.
Whether through a sensory-opening forest walk, caring for plants, or creating with natural materials, these experiences invite us to slow down, notice, and reconnect with ourselves, others, and the living world.
Guided approaches such as Nature and Forest Therapy and Therapeutic Horticulture deepen these benefits, helping to restore balance, clarity, and resilience.
The Science Behind Nature-Based Well-Being*
Biophilia Theory
Humans are biologically wired to connect with nature. Our bond with green spaces, water, and living organisms supports emotional balance and vitality.
Stress Reduction Theory
Natural environments help our bodies recover from stress more effectively, restoring calm and lowering blood pressure and heart rate.
Attention Restoration Theory
Nature gently captures our attention, allowing the mind to rest and recover from fatigue.
Phytoncide Hypothesis
Trees emit natural compounds called phytoncides that can enhance immune function and improve overall well-being.
ROOTING’s Approach
ROOTING’s approach is grounded in the values of wholeness, stillness, and compassion. Each experience is thoughtfully designed to reconnect people with nature, nurture calm awareness, and encourage gentle growth.
Programmes are guided by Jake Koh, a certified practitioner in Nature and Forest Therapy and Therapeutic Horticulture, combining evidence-based methods with a deep respect for people and place.
Through this integrated approach, ROOTING creates safe and restorative spaces where participants can slow down, care deeply, and return to what matters.
