Nature Wellbeing & Corporate Solutions

Manuela Siegfried

Manuela Siegfried was born and raised in Costa Rica. Her parents emigrated from Switzerland in the early 70´s looking for a different lifestyle. Having a biologist as a father, made contact with nature an intrinsic part of her life. This passion led her to work as a naturalist tourism guide for 3 years. After that she worked in the hotel management and tourism industry for over 15 years. She came across the concept of Shinrin-Yoku and the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy and immediately felt inspired and related to it.
Manuela was trained and certified in 2018 and has been guiding and facilitating experiences very actively since then.

Solutions for corporate wellness has been an activity that has become increasingly popular among companies and corporations.

She is passionate about helping people awaken their senses and slowing down in a natural setting so they can reconnect with themselves and nature and experience the benefits in terms of stress management and better overall physical and emotional health. Manuela is convinced that Wellbeing should go hand in hand with Nature and is especially passionate to bring this combination into the Corporate World and believes that this would not only benefit the persons, but also the companies and nature itself.
