Forest Therapy a.k.a Shinrin Yoku
Humans have a symbiotic relationship with trees. There is no better place for a human to find grounding, creativity, and connection to the Earth, and all of its creatures, than in the forest.

The Why Stories
Origin Story
Thinking Outside the Building™ was born of the COVID19 pandemic, by necessity. Our Founder, Sheri, merged existing networking and coaching work with her passion for hiking and forest therapy, Shinrun Yoku, the Japanese practice of letting the forest wash over the body. The results were undeniable. Clients thrived in outdoor meetings and found idea generation and Team Building activities to take on new life. This new business model was born.
Idea Generation
"Breaking away from my daily surroundings and taking in the scents, sounds and sights releases my imagination and magnifies my problem-solving abilities. It's more than brainstorming, coaching or counselling; it's a meeting of the minds that results in a heightened level of creativity. Sheri generates 'aha' moments by prompting me with her reflections. I come away unblocked and ready."
- Allison Ruch, Founder & CEO,
Living With Pain
"I would send any of my clients to Sheri, my own family, to help relieve their pain with her mindful movement programs. Her personal relationship with chronic pain gives her unique insight and empathy. She is walking proof."
