Summary
This study tested whether combining forest therapy (mindful walks in nature) with mindfulness practices can help reduce stress and improve well-being in highly sensitive adults. About 310 participants aged 18 to 65 with high sensory-processing sensitivity were randomly assigned to either a forest-based program or an indoor sensory control activity over 22 weeks. The main goal was to see if the forest program lowered perceived stress more than the control.
