Forest Bathing/Mindful Travelat Harju Acres
This trend or mindfulness practice emerged in Japan in the 1980s as a physiological and psychological exercise called shinrin-yoku (“forest bathing” or “taking in the forest atmosphere”). The purpose was twofold: to offer an eco-antidote to tech-boom burnout and to inspire residents to reconnect with and protect the country’s forests.

This forest was originally purchased by my great aunt Lillian Hanson to provide a woodlot for the dairy and farmhouse across Harju Road. Back then the trees would have been pulled out with draft horses. Since becoming owner of the land about 1995, I have planted 5,000 Norway Spruce and carefully managed and thinned the forest directed by professional foresters.
My interests include tree farming, wildlife, walking, music and new technology in solar and heatpumps. Wouldn't it be great to build a solar cabin on the property!
I hope you enjoy the quiet and some of cleanest air in the nation. The locals are characters and they will help you with anything that comes up!
