Jovena Loon

Jovena Loon is the founder of Gentle Walks (gentle.sg) and a certified forest therapy guide with five years of guiding experience in Singapore and Asia. After experiencing corporate burnout and chronic anxiety in 2021, Jovena found healing and clarity through forest bathing, inspiring her to commit to the service of human and planetary health.

Trained and certified by the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy (ANFT), she brings its evidence-based methodology to life with childlike curiosity and a poetic touch, creating experiences that nourish the spirit and move hearts.

With a decade of professional experience in global firms and a Graduate Diploma in Psychotherapy and Counselling, Jovena brings a grounded, psychology-informed approach to the practice. Through Gentle Walks, she seeks to create a gentler world by bringing people home to nature and to their own nature. Gentle Walks has since served over 1,700 participants through walks, retreats and team experiences.
