Forest Therapy Guide Training Retreat

Immerse yourself in the forested hills and gentle farmlands of the Carolina Piedmont while training to become a certified forest therapy guide at RambleRill Farm in Hillsborough, North Carolina.
The Forest Therapy School offers a mindfulness-based, experiential learning journey on the path to becoming a forest therapy guide.
Forest therapy is a growing global wellness movement backed by 40 years of scientific research. A type of ecotherapy that focuses on the therapeutic benefits of being among the trees, it is often referred to as forest bathing. It is a mindfulness-based practice that fosters a reconnection with nature - a waking up to all of life, our wholeness, and our belonging.
Whether you are taking this training for personal growth or to share the life-changing benefits of forest therapy with others, the curriculum is thoughtfully designed to give you a deeper understanding of the emerging field of forest therapy. You’ll walk away with the skills and confidence to guide participants in meaningful and restorative forest bathing experiences.
Over the course of 3.5 days at RambleRill Farm in Hillsborough, North Carolina, you will learn:
