JORD FOREST THERAPY

Jord Forest Therapy- Connecting Nature and Well-being across North Yorkshire

Welcome to Jord Forest Therapy

My Name is Katrina Fox, I live in Bedale, the Gateway to the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. I own and run Jord Forest Therapy. The idea of Jord Forest Therapy began after I moved from a busy town to the countryside, I noticed that I felt so much better being outdoors. I would feel all those “R” words; Relaxed; Renewed; Refreshed; Restored and Reinvigorated. Wondering why this was I began some research and came across the Japanese art of Shinrin Yoku. Shinrin Yoku which translates as “ Forest Bathing”, refers to the practice of immersing yourself in nature to improve your physical and emotional well-being. I became intrigued by the scientific research and evidence which suggested that spending at least at 20 minutes in a forest setting could reduce your stress levels and improve your emotional and physical health.

The benefits of nature are there for all to enjoy but for those seeking a deeper
connection and access to a more therapeutic relationship, Forest Therapy provides
a guided and supported opportunity to slow down, be present and mindfully immerse your senses; to touch, smell, hear, see and taste all that nature has cultivated from the rich tapestry of soil living and decaying for centuries in front of you, to the heady smells of the plants and trees vying for your attention. Forest Therapy is an experiential practice that can take place on your own, with a guide or with a group of like minded people seeking a supported introduction to the benefits of nature connection.

Why choose Jord?

Jord grew out of a personal passion to introduce others to the benefits of nature
connection. Having worked in social care all my career, I appreciate the challenges
that life can bring. I understand the desire to feel well, to feel lost and unsure of what path to take. Forest Therapy and nature connection helped me to get a sense of
myself, to take a step back and find healing in the most simplest of things. The
name Jord itself is the name given to the Nordic Goddess of the Earth, the personification of the natural world, a link back to our Viking past when nature was worshiped for the benefits it can bring and still can… try a free taster session, click on the book now.
