A Valuable Foundation with Room to Grow
As a newly certified sylvotherapist and someone coming from a professional background outside traditional wellness, I found this course both enlightening and rewarding. It does an excellent job of grounding forest bathing in science and explaining the physiological and psychological benefits of spending time in nature. The modules on forest chemistry and sensory activation were especially valuable and will continue to inform my own nature-based practice.
Overall, the course provides a strong foundation for anyone wishing to deepen their understanding of the forest’s healing power. I am grateful for what I learned and look forward to applying these principles in my own work with authenticity and respect.
very thorough
The course was quite thorough and enlightening.
Informative
I wish there was more content relevant to North America and the tips that therapists could consider from a decolonized perspective.
fullfilling
Very good experience thanks to the notions I pumped into. The practice with other members and interaction about the studied object to conduct sessions would be a surplus.
Thanks
Excellent Intro to Sylvotherapy
This was a great intro course to Sylvotherapy with a lot of tools and exercises that can be used right away to offer Sylvotherapy to friends, family, and to start a career in the field. There is a lot of reading and so if you are more of a visual person then this may be a bit of a challenge. However, as you can complete it at your own pace, it is still a really great first step!
Very good
Good all round course with lots of additional, coursework,
A little dated
Some of the information in Module 10 regarding social media could be updated some.
So far, so good
I've enjoyed the course thus far. It's been very informative.
its pretty decent
its full of information, but sometimes feels unnecessarily too long and can be tedious
Good Info
I'm enjoying the course so far, though I wish it offered some videos as well to mix it up a bit.
Get out what you put in
It's my feeling that anyone could skip through much of the course work and still achieve the same result. There is a great deal of information, research and reference materials, all of which are easy to access, easy to save and useful. However, I find the format of try, try, try again with multiple choice answers for assessment, means it is up to you to decide how thoroughly you want to learn your subject. I am a qualified forest school leader and beach school leader already, so for me, it was very important to immerse myself in further knowledge, so that I can confidently offer this as a service, but for some, it would be an easy way to gain a qualification, without actually learning the material.
Love learning about Trees
I am gaining more knowledge every time I read or listen. I enjoy both, the written word and the audio. Very helpful. Great course to learn about out environment.
Great Start!
I find this course so interesting. I only wish they had videos to see some of this in action, as well as easily printable charts for future reference. The information provided is limited, but it's an excellent start for the price. Start here if you're interested in something, before you spend thousands on certifications. You can always add to this.
good
enjoying this class
Interesting & Varied Course
A really useful course packed with interesting and useful information. The only small issue I had, is that I am autistic and I found some of the questions a little obscure and difficult to understand
Good
Easy to navigate
