Forest Bathing ft. Dr. Suzanne Bartlett Hackenmiller

Author: Drs. Mark and Michele Sherwood March 18, 2021 Duration: 44:00
Ever driven somewhere and had no memory of getting there? Ever been in the middle of a conversation with someone only to realize you have no idea what the person is saying? Those activities (and countless others) are examples of NOT being mindful. Not slowing down to really enjoy the food you are eating, or paying attention to the sights and sounds going on around you. Now imagine that we are going to take two words that you are already familiar with, and combine them into one term that you probably have never heard of before. Ready? Are you sure? This is pretty different. Okay, here they are. Forest + Bathing. (I tried to warn you.) First, let me assure you that your clothes stay on. It’s simply a matter of taking all of the relaxation that you get from a bath - “Calgon take me away” - and combine that with the simple pleasure and therapeutic benefits of nature. THAT’s what we’re talking about today.

Tuning into Living Your Wellness Life feels like sitting down for a candid conversation with two trusted guides who’ve walked the path themselves. Each week, Drs. Mark and Michele Sherwood-who founded and run a thriving medical practice-blend their clinical expertise with a deeply personal perspective. Their discussions move seamlessly from the science of nutrition and fitness to the grounding principles of faith, offering a holistic view that encompasses physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, and even financial well-being. This isn’t about abstract theory; it’s about practical, actionable steps you can apply immediately. The doctors have a gift for translating complex information into clear, usable insights, helping you cultivate tangible results in your own life. Drawn from their work with a global audience, each episode of this podcast is crafted to provide both hope and a clear strategy, meeting you right where you are. If you’re looking for a resource that honors the connection between body and spirit while providing grounded, scientifically-informed advice, you’ll find a reliable companion in Living Your Wellness Life.
