▉ 春天的森療
三月的一個晴天。感謝老天爺！給了我們如此一個好天氣，空氣聞起來都是晴朗的味道！無雲，望著，就莫名遼闊了起來~~我們一起在一個都會區的小森林裡進行了一場「森林」與「心靈」的聯繫活動！
A sunny day in March. Thank God for giving us such nice weather. Even the air smells like sunshine! It was cloudless, and the view seemed inexplicably vast. We conducted an activity to connect the "FOREST" and the "SOUL" in a small forest in a metropolitan area!

▉ 台北的綠肺之一
這裡是台北市內的一個大學！一直以來的印象，她的地景以一條寬闊的大道與一個湖而聞名，原以為「That's all~」(穿著Prada的惡魔, 梅莉史翠普的名場面)。卻沒想到，森療師帶領的是樹木覆蓋的植披區域，這裡甚至有小森林！關鍵字「椰林大道」、「醉月湖」，是的，這次的森療場域就在國立台灣大學。
This is an university in Taipei city. People are used to be impressed that she is famous by a wide road and a lake. I thought "That's all~". (reminiscent of Meryl Streep's famous scene in the movie "The Devil wears Prada") But I didn't expect that the Forest Therapist would lead us to a vegetation area covered with trees, and there was even a small forest here! Check the KEYWORDS: "Royal Palm Blvd.", "Drunken Moon Lake". YES, the venue for this Forest Therapy activity is at National Taiwan University.
Fu Ssu-Nien Memorial Garden
▉ 傅園
第一站來到「傅園」。1951年建成，是紀念台大第四任校長傅斯年（1896~1950）的紀念園林。同時，校園內也有建造一座紀念鐘，是為「傅鐘」，每節下課會敲21響，傅校長名言：「一天只有21小時，其餘3小時是用來沉思的。」傅校長還有許多名言：「若有學生流血，我要跟你(警總)拼命！」，這是他保護學生的使命感。「上窮碧落下黃泉，動手動腳找東西。」深深影響學術研究的實作精神。...「對有才智的貧困學生，絕對要扶植！」是這位校長在省參議會的最後報告，報告後在議場上腦溢血送醫不治，享年55(虛)歲。
The first stop is "Fu's Memorial Garden". It was built in 1951 to commemorate the 4th principal of NTU, Fu Ssu-Nien (1896~1950). At the same time, a memorial bell was built on campus, the "Fu Bell", which will ring 21 times at the end of each class. Principal Fu said: "There are only 21 hours in a day, and the remaining 3 hours are for contemplation."
Make your own mask by using natural materials.
▉ 你戴的面具長啥樣
森療師Amy引導學員，以大自然的素材，每個人做出自己的面具。你覺得自己戴了什麼樣的面具在世人面前？或者你想要戴著什麼樣的面具行走江湖？這是潔兮做的面具，「哈麥二齒」(布袋戲知名角色)，想要搞笑江湖的意思！:P
Forest Therapist Amy guides the students to make their own masks using materials from nature. What kind of mask do you think you wear in front of the world? Or what kind of mask do you WANT to wear when walking around in the society? This is a mask made by Jessie, named "Ha Wei two teeth", trying to bring fun to the world.

▉ 每一草、每一木、每一景
其實，走在校園裡的每一草、每一木、每一景，在在都在療癒你被水泥叢林固化已久的靈魂。你可能需要一劑叫做「遼闊」的處方，再搭配上名叫「棕櫚樹」的補藥，此刻，面具已漸漸從每個人的臉上取下。
While walking on campus, every blade of grass, every tree, and every scene can heal your soul that has been solidified by the concrete jungle for too long. You may need a prescription called "Vastness" combined with a tonic called "Palm Tree". At this moment, the mask is gradually being removed from everyone's face.

▉ 建立與樹木的連結
森療師引導大家去尋找一棵與你有緣的樹，你可以抱抱樹或傾聽樹的聲音或用自己的方式與樹連結，透過與樹的儀式來感受大自然賜予的贈禮。
The Forest Therapist guides everyone to find a tree that you are destinied to be with. You can hug the tree, listen to the tree's voice, or connect with the tree in your own way, and feel the gift bestowed by nature through the theremony with the tree.
The building found its own way to connect with nature. O^.^O
▉ 穿上綠外衣的建築
瞧！這棟建築物顯然也找到了與大自然的連結方式，綠色植披恣意在建築物身上瘋狂生長，預示千年後都會區反璞歸真的可能樣貌。
Look! This building has obviously fuond a way to connect with nature. O^.^O Green plants grow widely on the building, indicating that the urban area may return to its possible original natural appearance in thousands of years.
Mandala formation is used to activate LOVE and PEACE therapy.
▉ 遇見「曼陀羅」
曼陀羅在宗教界是修持能量的中心，藉著「萬象森列、圓融有序」的佈置，追尋宇宙的真實。在這個森療活動中，Amy老師希望我們能夠靜下心來，藉由曼陀羅的力量，感應「愛與和平」的本質。
In the religious world, Mandala is the center of energy cultivation, pursuing the truth of the universe through the arrangement of "all things in order and harmony". In this forest therapy activity, Teacher Amy hopes that we can calm down and use the power of Mandala to sense the essence of "LOVE" and "PEACE".
Sanskrit chanting begins.
▆ 梵唱登場
由暖火老師帶領的「梵唱」登場。此節活動主要是引導積聚「愛與和平」的能量，透過梵唱的韻律，要讓人放下心中的執念與肩上的壓力，方能導引能量進入每個個體的能量場。
The "Sanskrit Chanting" led by Teacher Nuanhuo appeared on stage. The purpose of this activity is to guide and accumulate the energy of "LOVE" & "PEACE". Through the rhythm of Sanskrit Chanting, people are encouraged to let go of the obsessions in their hearts and the presure on their shoulders, so that the energy can be guided into the energy field of each individual.
▉ 參加活動感受 Feedback
現代人投入大量時間於工作，每每為了平衡工作與家庭，被壓的喘不過氣來！我們可不可以為自己找個時間、尋個機會學習放下、放鬆? 這次謝謝Amy老師的推薦，終於饒過自己、不再猶豫，早早起床參加了活動。
森林，自有她的療癒力量，只是久處水泥叢林的我們，竟然太習以為常與高樓大廈為伍，時常錯過都會裡還有「綠肺」可讓我們停下腳步，好好吸滿一口療癒。經由Amy與暖火老師的引導，我在樹下，漸漸放鬆，曬著暖陽，放下再放下，放下現代人過多的我執，這是一個學習的過程，學習著，學習著，我在樹蔭下，呼吸著青翠，竟然睡著了！這是一個十分珍貴的放鬆。
活動起始時，我戴著我做的「哈麥二齒」面具想要行走江湖。走到哪兒，就以面具拍張到此一遊照，殊不知，真實感受周遭環境，與之互動，比起自己的面具，來得有趣多了。無論你的面具是笑臉還是哭臉，其實人們還是可以感受到你的「真我」、「真性情」，於是，我瞭解到，面具的「露齒」只是一個門面上的「入門」表情，若你的心境沒有「FUN」，那麼就無法帶給周圍朋友真的FUN，假如你一直想要用面具來敷衍的話！
暖火老師為活動加入了「梵唱」的元素，這是一個很珍貴的體驗，以「愛」與「和平」為基調，想要為我們尋回已被工作折衝等磨掉的能量。潔兮與大自然和平共處的能量是有的，但，與人相處更需要這樣的愛與和平的能量；梵唱，帶領我們自省，要從「無愛」、「不和平」的狀態，將你拉回來，回到最和諧的狀態，無論是與大自然，或是與人類相處，有了這樣的能量流動，很容易幫助人進入「練功」狀態，於是，我們在那條中間線，不斷去與回，拉與放，夢與醒，鬆與緊...，逐漸找回所堅持的價值！
