Kad sjedneš među drveće i prestaneš se kretati: 🌲 živčani sustav se smiruje 🌲 osjetila se izoštravaju 🌲 dah se produbljuje Šuma te tada počinje “čitati” – i tvoje tijelo se vraća u ravnotežu. To je jedna od najmoćnijih praksi šumske kupke, a mi smo ti pripremili jednu vježbu koju možeš stalno prakticirati. Hoćeš li je isprobati? 😊 #šumskakupka #Shinrinyoku #šuma #snagašume

Koliko si puta bio u prirodi… a nisi je stvarno vidio? Kamera umjesto očiju. Poruke umjesto tišine. Šumska kupka je povratak osjetilima: - mirisu zemlje - zvuku lišća - svjetlu kroz krošnje Telefon može čekati. Tvoje tijelo ne može. 😊 #snagašume #šumskakupka #Shinrinyoku #šuma @poliderma @idilira_travel_agency @opcina_radoboj

Danas je u Radoboju predstavljen program medicinskog wellnessa na programu šumske kupke - mala općina koja ide u korak sa svjetskim trendom održivog turizma! Program je razvijen kao odgovor na rastuće potrebe za mentalnim zdravljem, posebno kod ljudi koji žive ubrzanim tempom, a Radoboj svega 40 min.udaljen od Zagreba pozicionira se kao nova destinacija zdravlja i održivog wellnessa, bez masovnog turizma ali sa velikim učinkom. Poliklinika Poliderma i dr.Dinko Kaliterna koji je na čelu mulridisciplinarnog tima asocijacije SNAGA ŠUME dobila je rješenje Ministarstva zdravstva o pružanju usluge medicinskog wellnessa u Radoboju jer zadovoljava sve uvjete prema postojećrm Pravilniku ministarstva zdravstva. Sigurno da će to biti još jedna nadogradnja za veći posjet KZŽ kako je istakla i gđa Sanja Škrinjar direktorica TZ KTŽ. Načelnik Radoboja gosp. Anđelko Topolovac ponosan je da tako mala općina koja i nema svoju TZ, iskoračuje u svijet sa novim inventivnim turističkim proizvodima. Jer Radoboj pruža ne samo zelenu oazu mira kroz svoju Strahinjčicu, nego i puno dodatnih kulturnih sadržaja a već poznati ForestFest Radoboj održava se od 12.-14.svibnja o.g.

U svakodnevici gledamo u ekrane. U šumi gledamo u daljinu. To mijenja mozak. To opušta oči. To smanjuje stres. Kada gledaš horizont, tijelo prestaje biti u “opasnost–kontrola” modu. Prelazi u stanje: 🌲 otvorenosti 🌲 povjerenja 🌲 prisutnosti Zato se nakon boravka u prirodi često kaže: “kao da mi je lakše.” 💚 #snagašume #šumskakupka #šuma #Shinrinyoku

Dear Jasna, dear Ernest, dear colleagues,

Thank you once again for inviting me to the 1st Croatian Congress on Forest Therapy, which was an excellent event as an organization, on a scientific level, and as an opportunity to meet interesting people with different expertise. I hope I made a small contribution, but I am sure I learned a lot.

With all my best wishes,

First of all, I would like to express my sincere thanks to Jasna

and the organizing members. During the congress, I got very useful and valuable information and knowledge from presentations and discussions. I talked with many people from medical areas and was impressed with their efforts to implement forest therapy in their field.

Thanks again,

The forest hosted and embraced us during the symposium.

We left a part of ourselves in it, and in return received friendship and connection with people who think, feel and breathe as one. they say that life is not measured by the number of breaths, but by the number of moments when you run out of breath - and this was one such moment. 

Circles have been created that will bridge the boundaries that people have invented, and some new light is being born. 

May the Forest be with you
