Stunning forest trail at Brookvally Resort highlighting nature's healing power

In our fast-paced, digital world, it's easy to feel disconnected. We spend our days glued to screens, bombarded by notifications, and surrounded by concrete. But there is a remedy, an ancient and powerful one: Nature.

The Science of Forest Bathing

Originating in Japan, Shinrin-yoku or "forest bathing" is the practice of immersing oneself in nature. Studies have shown that it lowers cortisol levels, reduces blood pressure, and improves mood.

At Brookvally, we encourage our guests to take slow, mindful walks through our private trails. Listen to the rustling leaves, breathe in the pine-scented air, and let the forest work its magic.
