During the excursion that we propose to you, in the beautiful Acququerino Nature Reserve, we will experience immersion in the forest, a practice to regain well-being, spending time in the forest, wandering quietly inside with open senses, to enter into a relationship with it.
Qing Li, the medical immunologist considered the greatest scholar and popularizer of this practice, who comes from Japan, in his book and in most of his writings, first emphasizes that immersion in the forest (Shinrin Yoku in Japanese) " it is not a form of physical exercise, an excursion or a variant of jogging: it simply consists in coming into contact with nature, in connecting to it through physical sensations ”.
Diving in the forest are practices which, scientifically proven, with a certain frequency, bring countless psycho-physical benefits, up to strengthening the immune system.

The exact meeting place, which will coincide with the start of the activity, will be outdoors and will be communicated exclusively to the participants.
