Testimonial

"Our team was completely burnt out after a brutal year-long project that ended in failure. We were stressed, disconnected, and pretty discouraged. I hired Chris for a forest bathing session, and it was exactly the 'reset' button we needed.

Chris has this great, grounded way of helping you actually unplug. By the end of the session, the heavy atmosphere was gone. We didn't just recover from the disappointment—we actually had fun and remembered how much we liked working together. We came back to the office feeling relaxed, human again, and genuinely confident about what’s next. If your team is hitting a wall, call Chris. It’s a total game-changer." - University of Utah
