Welcome home!
Wild Cypress, Inc. provides inclusive Nature and Forest Therapy experiences, guiding individuals back to their connection with the natural world.
Rooted in accessibility, diversity, and belonging, we offer education, training, and immersive retreats that break barriers—incorporating sign language, silence, and play as tools for connection. By rewilding both land and self, we foster holistic well-being, encouraging deeper understanding of our place in
nature and each other.
What is Nature and Forest Therapy?
Forest Therapy is a practice that involves shinrin-yoku, which is a Japanese word meaning "taking in the forest". This practice is open-ended; there is no prescription for what a person "should" experience, or what benefits they "should" receive. Instead, it is a practice of developing a deepening relationship of reciprocity, in which the forest and the practitioner find a way to work together that supports the wholeness and wellness of each being.
In Forest Therapy, there is a clearly defined sequence of guided events that provides structure to the experience, while embracing the many opportunities for creativity and serendipity offered by the forest and the individual inspiration of the guide.
Sensory Embodiment and Silence are tools to help us slow down and connect with ourselves and the Natural world surrounding us. It is through connecting with our senses that we can explore our relationship with our bodies and our environment. It is through silence, where we can better "hear" that inner voice, the wild child, that lives deep within us.
Together, we will embark on a journey that will help you come to your senses and re-connect with your inner, wild child. Book with us for an experience you will never forget!
