Take a hike! - a little exercise

Page reviewed:  15/09/2026

We invite you to a session on how spending time in the forest affects your well-being. It also gives you the chance to try out a Mood Questionnaire.

If you want to test for yourself how YOU are affected by spending time in nature, while also seeing how everyone who has done the exercise felt, follow the instructions below OR KEEP READING HERE.

WHAT TO DO:

  1. Choose a favorite spot in the forest, preferably close to where you live if possible.
  2. Pick a place where you feel comfortable and where there are as few distractions as possible (such as crowds, traffic, noise, etc.).
  3. Dress according to the weather, including appropriate footwear (ideally a bit warmer than you think you need), and bring a sitting mat or sleeping pad.
  4. Find a comfortable spot, sit down (or walk/ski slowly and mindfully), and experience the nature around you for 30 minutes to an hour.
  5. Fill out these forms in direct connection to the activity: BEFORE AND AFTER
