Forest Bathing Essential Oil Blend (10 ml)

Immerse yourself in the restorative atmosphere of a living forest with this expertly crafted essential oil blend, inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku—or “forest bathing.” This 10 ml blend captures not just the scent, but the active essence of woodland air.

The Science of Forest Air
Trees such as fir, pine, spruce, and cedar release natural aromatic compounds known as phytoncides. These include α-pinene, β-pinene, limonene, and borneol—molecules that give forests their distinctive fresh, resinous scent. Research suggests that inhaling these compounds may help reduce stress hormones, support immune activity (including natural killer cell function), and promote a calm, focused state of mind.

Forest bathing in Japan embraces this natural chemistry—encouraging slow, mindful breathing to absorb these beneficial compounds. This blend is designed to bring that experience into your home.
