1980'lerde Japonya'da ortaya çıkan Shinrin yoku, orman atmosferini solumak, orman banyosu yapmak anlamlarına gelir. Orman gölgesinde zaman geçirmenin bünyeye iyi geldiğine inanılır. Fotoğraf, anne karnındaki kızıma bir shinrin-yoku deneyimi yaşatmak amacıyla İstanbul’da bir apartman dairesinde çekildi.

Shinrin yoku is a term which means taking in the forest atmosphere or forest bathing. It was developed in Japan during the 1980s and researchers believe in the health benefits of spending time under the canopy of a living forest.
If a person simply visits a natural area and walks in a relaxed way, there are calming, rejuvenating and restorative benefits to be achieved.
This photo was taken during the first shinrin yoku of a person, my daughter, in a flat in Istanbul, who was in her mother's womb back then.
