Forest bathing, or shinrin-yoku, is a Japanese practice that involves immersing oneself in nature. Forest bathing encourages slow and mindful walking, without the goal of reaching a specific destination 🌲

This week is #ITPAwarenessWeek, where we help raise public awareness for the rare blood autoimmune disease #ImmuneThrombocytopenia or ITP and shine a light on the ITP patient experience 💜
ITP is a rare autoimmune disease where the body’s immune system attacks platelets. Platelets assist the blood to clot, and ITP patients have a low platelet count. ITP impacts approximately 1 in 10,000. It affects children and adults, and there is no cure. No single test is currently available to determine whether a person has ITP, and for most people, there is no known cause.
ITP Australia and New Zealand’s mission is to provide up-to-date information, education, support and advocacy for ITP patients and the ITP community. From Monday the 23rd of September through to Saturday the 28th of September the Horoeka Lantern will be lit purple to show our support for ITP Australia and New Zealand and the ITP community.

Did you know that from our inception we have strived to minimise our environmental footprint? 🌏
This is reflected in the construction techniques used to build the Treewalk - renewable, durable materials such as the macrocarpa timber that our platforms are constructed of and the innovative timber material our David Trubridge night lights are made from ✨
