WORD WHEEL This transportation themed word wheel is made up from a 9-letter transportation themed word. Discover that word, then make as many words as you can from the letters in the wheel. Each word must include the letter B . To try forest bathing, head to a grove of trees where you can slowly walk through nature, without any electronics distracting you. Listen to the sounds around you like birds, animals, wind, rain or leaves underfoot. Observe the scenery, noticing light filtering through branches, leaves falling or signs of wildlife. Pause occasionally to touch a tree, leaves or even a stone on the path. While you’re stopped, notice the earthy scent of soil, any floral fragrances, fresh pine or just the crispness of an autumn or winter day. Tasting nature isn’t suggested, unless you’re an experienced forager, but instead allow yourself to savour the freshness of the air or sip tea or water as you go. Forest bathing, an ancient Japanese practice, allows you to mindfully connect with nature to improve your mental and physical health. It’s more than a walk in the woods; it involves an immersive experience that engages all of your senses. Physically, walking benefits your body and breathing in the fresh forest air helps oxygenate your blood. Mentally, purposeful time in nature can reduce stress and improve your mood.
