Costa Rica wants you to visit for 'forest bathing'

If you can’t resist trying out all the latest travel and wellness trends, start planning a trip to Costa Rica where travelers are being encouraged to take part in practices like “earthing” and “forest bathing”.

The Costa Rica Tourism Board is promoting itself as the perfect destination for “innovative wellness therapies”, particularly ones that will get travellers out and into nature. The country is billing itself as a great place to get beyond the old classics like spas or yoga retreats and into something a little bit more interesting.
