About

“The great work of this century is to usher the reconnection to nature – there’s nothing else that matters more” (Thomas Berry).

Welcome to Stillness in Nature!

Stillness in Nature aims to inspire you to (re)connect with nature, yourself, each other and this moment in time and to practice nature connection on a regular basis. We organize small-scale shinrin-yoku workshops in nature both in the Amsterdam area and elsewhere. The walks are for individuals and groups of friends/family/colleagues/teams.

We also offer an option to combine the shinrin-yoku walk with an outdoor yoga class. Like shinrin-yoku, yoga has its very roots in feeling a connection with nature and the natural world. Practicing yoga outdoors, in the fresh air, surrounded by greenery and fresh oxygen gives you a boost of energy, strengthens your immune system and stimulates your senses. You can smell the plants and trees, have a wonderful view during your asanas and could listen to the sound of the birds. This will inspire, motivate and stimulate you.

Stillness in Nature also offers life coaching in nature, a refreshing new way of coaching. We walk together, whilst talking and with your question and situation as starting point. Nature will actively be incorporated in each session. Walking in nature helps you to become quiet in your mind. Nature is restful, therefore you will be able to listen better to your inner voice, there where you can find all the answers to your questions. 

In need of an inner reset? Look no further.

For upcoming activities, please check our Upcoming Shinrin-Yoku Workshops or contact us in case you want to organize your own forest bathing trip or mini-retreat combined with outdoor yoga on a different date and time and need a certified forest bathing guide (and/or certified yoga teacher).

Stillness in Nature is happy to co-create activities and align with your programme, too!
