Built around adventure and immersive cultural experiences, G Adventures, the pioneering small-group adventure tour operator, has a collection of wellness adventures in various destinations across the globe, including Iceland, Bali, and Costa Rica.

\"Forest<\/a><\/p>\n

2<\/span>\u00a0 | \u00a0Forest Bathing<\/h3>\n

Shinrin-Yoku is the Japanese term for forest bathing which originated in Japan in the 1980s. Forest bathing refers to soaking in the essence of the forest rather than literally taking a bath in the middle of it. Experience forest bathing while on an extremely slow guided walk and mindful approaches that include yoga and meditation \u2014 all with the intent of elevating your sensory immersion. Studies have revealed the many health benefits of immersing yourself in nature, which include reduced stress hormone production and improved feelings of happiness as well as lower heart rate and blood pressure, a stronger immune system, and accelerated recovery from illness.<\/p>\n

To experience it close to home, head to the lush forests of British Columbia\u2019s Sunshine Coast for a guided forest therapy walk, or to L\u2019Apothecary Spa in Sedona for a 90-minute bathing experience with a certified Shinrin-Yoku facilitator.<\/p>\n

The annual World Happiness Report includes a list of the world\u2019s happiest countries, and for the fourth year in a row, Finland takes the top spot. In addition to measuring GDP, generosity, social support, healthy life expectancy, and freedom from corruption and to make life choices, the report states that Finland ranks very high on the measures of mutual trust that have helped to protect lives and livelihoods during the pandemic. The country took it upon itself to share its recipe to happiness in the past year with the virtual \u201cRent a Finn\u201d tourism initiative, giving people the opportunity to learn about the secrets of Finnish happiness, wherever they are. Travelers had the chance to connect one-on-one with Happiness Guides who shared their knowledge about the country and told their guests how to connect with nature and find their calm \u2014 an excellent way to prepare for your next blissful adventure. Finland was followed by its Nordic neighbor Denmark, then Switzerland and Iceland, with The Netherlands coming in fifth.<\/p>\n

Giving and helping both improve the world and make us feel good about ourselves which is why experiential travel with an emphasis on philanthropy is increasingly popular. And that\u2019s a good thing for all of us.
