The Yatsugatake Club, located at the southern foot of the Yatsugatake Mountains in Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture, will begin a new program, “Forest Healing Retreat Morning Forest Days & Yoga Days,” in the spring of 2025. The founder was the late actor Hiroshi Yagyu. This forest, which has been cultivated for over 35 years since then, is still carefully maintained and is filled with the breath of rich nature. This retreat is a program guided by a forest therapist to deepen your sense of oneness with nature. You will experience the forest using all five senses and have time to let go of everyday stress. As the forest changes with each season, your mind and body will slowly relax. In addition, the Mori no Niwa site also features a cafe, restaurant, shop, and exhibition stage, where craftworks and gardening goods from all over Japan are on display and for sale throughout the year, and weekly exhibitions of selected works by artists from around the country are held. This facility offers many ways to enjoy your stay, in addition to forest retreat tours. Image

In the nature of the four seasons, you can interact with plants that can only be seen at that time of year, sometimes experience tree cutting, bonfires, etc., lie down on the forest floor to release tension in your mind and body, feel one with the trees and stones, and finally enjoy a leisurely tea time in the forest. Away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, you will be guided by a guide to immerse yourself in the gentle nature of the forest, creating an opportunity to release tension in your mind and body. In August and December, we will also invite a yoga instructor to hold forest yoga in the forest. Background of the event The Yatsugatake Club forest, which was started by the late actor Hiroshi Yagyu, founder and gardener, with the aim of creating a “landscape where people and nature get along well,” is still constantly maintained by staff who have inherited the same aspirations. In order to provide a deeper sense of relaxation, rather than just strolling through a beautiful forest bathed in sunlight that is different from abandoned forests and artificial forests, we have brushed up on the forest walking tours that we have been running on a small scale for some time, and have restarted them this year as “Forest Healing Retreat Morning Forest DAYS & Yoga DAYS.” A dedicated guide who is qualified as a forest therapist will guide you through a program that is suitable for the time and participants, taking into account various conditions.

Once you step inside, you will be enveloped in the sunlight and the wind that blows through it, and it is a healing forest. If you visit here, why not leave the hustle and bustle of everyday life for a while and entrust your mind to the forest with the guidance of a guide?” [Example of program content]

You can participate in the same clothes as you normally wear. Smell the fragrant leaves, listen to the birds, touch the cool, damp moss…expand your senses to the details of the forest that you wouldn’t notice if you were just walking around, and spend time immersed in nature.

Lie down in the sunlight filtering through the trees, listen to the birds and the wind, relax your body, and become one with nature. If it’s just a light rain that’s blocked by the trees, you can lie down in the rain.

Here too, the aim is to become part of nature and achieve deep relaxation. For yoga in December, we will rent out the stage of the forest solo exhibition venue. [Voices from customers] “I was able to fully experience nature by walking among the fresh greenery while listening to the birds. Touching rocks, leaning against trees, lying on the ground, and spending time at one with the earth and nature was a time that warmed and warmed my heart. Thank you for a wonderful retreat.” “I lay down at the end, feeling the sound of the rain and the drops of water, as if I was a child again. I was able to feel the silence of the stones and the life of the trees, and I felt protected. I would like to come back when I’m tired.” “I learned that to heal the mind and body, you need to feel the earth, touch the trees, talk to the stones, and let the birds sing into your heart. I felt so purified. Thank you very much.” “It’s the same as yoga. If you can make time for this regularly in your daily life, you can balance your mind and body and feel saved.” This program has also attracted attention from the perspective of forest therapy, and has been well received by a wide range of people who are interested in experiencing nature, well-being, and mindfulness.
