Learn more about the practitioner’s approach, session style and the kind of support available.
After a career in event management, I trained with The Forest Bathing Institute, Iearning deeply about Meditation and Mindfulness and the science behind the practice of Shinrin-Yoku (Forest Bathing).
Since then, I became a leading guide in various locations: Woburn Forest, Burnham Beeches, Epping Forest, Kew Gardens, Gladstone Park and Newlands Corner and Hampstead Heath.
I am part of the team of The Forest Bathing Institute and I am involved in the training of future Forest Bathing guides.
Forest Bathing is an immersive and meditative experience in nature that improves our wellbeing. When taking groups to a Forest, I help people to slow down, to stay silent, to connect to nature, to feel more of your sensations, more of your body and less of your racing thoughts. I use breathing techniques and sensory exercises to slow down your nervous system and gain a sense of relaxation and peace. While connecting with nature, we can connect more with our inner self; this experience can arouse emotional and personal reflections along with creativity and heartfelt desires. I work with nature to create a safe and supportive environment.

I had never even heard of forest bathing and knew nothing about what it might entail or involve. Images of naked rolling in leaves came to mind! But its’beautiful simplicity is more potent than that literal interpretation. Truly looking at the world around us, the trees we pass, their shapes and textures, the sounds we too often ignore, slowing down your walking and your power of observation and just seeing - is all it is. But somehow it’s so much more than that. Guided by Elisabetta and her simple suggestions to notice shapes, sounds, smells, takes you deep into the forest and a gentle hypnotic meditative state. I feel for once I was truly immersing, seeing things I may not have seen before just by slowing down. Relaxed, entirely de-stressed and rejuvenated after our evocative mediative journey into the forest, I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
I loved our session and felt it was enormously helpful. I loved the silence and the slowness and felt a real switch when you asked us to immerse ourselves into the experience. I felt like I could quieten the voices in my head (until the kids called me on my phone that is.) I loved being guided by you and felt you perfectly judged the mood and your group. It felt natural and unhurried, with just enough of a nudge to keep us on track. It was magical, really. I really enjoyed the mindfulness aspect of your guidance, where you helped us really use our senses. It felt playful and gentle but also quite radical, because we were being asked to shrug off our more cynical, over-thinking parts of ourselves and instead slip into something intuitive and instructive, more child-like. It was much needed to shift into this after all the stuff we all deal with in our day to day lives. Thank you so much for your time with us last weekend. You are a natural, skilful guide. All the best to you!
I LOVED the forest bathing. Elisabetta is a warm and confident guide for the session Elisabetta was warm, informative and has a very calming presence Elisabetta showed us on how to really immerse ourselves and to look and feel deeply .The right amount of verbal guiding and letting us be in silence was so well balanced and her soothing voice flowed beautifully. The session was 2 hours but felt much shorter-I could have carried on despite the cold! What comes through most is Elisabetta’s pure joy for her work, plus a genuine love and passion for the natural world. She is made for Forest Bathing!
