Susan teaching Qigong during a forest bath retreat

You are strolling slowly through a forest with a babbling brook or run and birds gently singing and chirping around you. The wind glides through the trees, the frog chirp in the back ground, a family of ducks are swimming beside you, and you bend down to scoop up some earth, noticing the aroma. You breathe in the air around you that is pungent with life!
