A genuine interruption to sustained cognitive input, giving attention space to recover and refocus.
A slower pace, natural surroundings and fewer demands create space for stress to ease and the mind to settle.
Stepping outside familiar routines creates distance from day-to-day pressures and space to see things differently.
A change of environment and reduced cognitive load can create space for new ideas, different connections and clearer problem-solving.
Time together outside usual roles and routines creates an opportunity for teams to connect differently and engage with one another more openly.
“Within the first hour, I noticed I was already much more relaxed. I really valued that Linda gave us opportunities to share our thoughts while making it clear that we didn’t have to. Linda’s calmness, understanding and knowledge ultimately made this a beautiful experience for me.”Sophie Brouwer · Paid Social Lead, Monica Vinader
“I really appreciated the professionalism of the information provided before the session and the structure of the experience itself. I felt held and cared for throughout, and Linda’s attention to detail and calm energy helped me fully relax and enjoy the experience.”Anne-Margaux Illido · Art Historian, V&A
“A week on from my forest bathing experience with The Wild Pause, I feel grounded, calm, my senses heightened and my sleep has deepened. But I’ve also been on fire with creative projects this week. Thanks Linda for taking us into the woods and guiding us into reconnecting with ourselves and the nature around us.”Lou Hamilton · Artist & Creative Director, HEAL LONDON
How it works
We discuss your people, objectives, group size, location and what you want the experience to create.
I shape timings, accessibility, weather planning and the wider programme around your group.
I facilitate the experience from start to finish, holding the structure, pace and practicalities to allow the team to be fully present with the experience.
We create space to reflect on what emerged and consider what is worth carrying back into the working day.
Location & flexibility
Delivered at a suitable outdoor location in London or beyond, with each experience designed around your organisation’s needs and preferences.
About Linda
Linda brings nearly two decades of experience spanning HR, technology, sales operations and senior leadership.
She understands the demands of modern working life from the inside. Today, she combines that experience with professional Forest Bathing+ training in the UK and Shinrin-yoku training in Japan to create considered opportunities for rest, reflection and connection.
A Certified International Shinrin-Yoku Instructor, Linda brings three years of guiding, with more than 500 people sharing the experience.
Planning your experience
A Team Reset creates protected time away from work demands for rest, reflection and connection. It can form part of a wider approach to workplace wellbeing. Burnout prevention also requires attention to the sources of workplace stress, including workload, support and working conditions. The experience is a wellbeing practice, not a clinical burnout treatment.
Read the HSE guidance on managing workplace stress and the research behind forest bathing.
Teams and leaders looking for space to pause, reconnect and reflect together. No previous experience of forest bathing or meditation is needed, and participation and sharing are always invitational. We discuss mobility, access needs and comfort before choosing the location and format.
A Team Reset can be a standalone experience or part of a team day, leadership off-site or wider wellbeing programme. Start with your objectives, approximate group size, preferred location and timing. Linda will shape the experience around your brief, including weather planning and practical arrangements.
Let’s create an experience around your team, your setting and what you want the time to support.
