Susanne, TFBI Forest Bathing+ Guide
As a Forest Bathing+ Guide you will differentiate yourself from the crowd by offering a unique and empowering service,
only available via the TFBI immersive training experience
At TFBI we have developed each element of the our FB+ approach to mindfulness in nature over many years and hundreds of sessions; unlike some less rigorous trainings, with the support of university-led research, we are now proving the therapeutic effectiveness of FB+ indicating an improvement in many areas of wellbeing.
Our training is designed to set a benchmark in forest bathing as a nature therapy in the UK. There is no online substitute for time spent learning in the woods.
Key highlights of the training
- A hybrid approach to learning to save cost for you where possible; partly online meetings and partly with us in the ancient woods
- Develop your mindfulness practice in Module 1
- Gain first hand, practical experience in the woods during Module 2
- Receive personal support at every stage of the journey
- Get your copy of our updated manuals to reference both during and after your studies with us
- CMA accredited certification and discounted Guide Insurance
