About Youmin Yap, Rest Coach & Forest Therapy Guide/Trainer

Youmin serves as a rest coach, and is also a pioneer certified forest therapy guide and trainer in the Southeast Asia region. Currently based in Singapore and Taiwan, her approach to rest for well-being is down-to-earth and nature-inspired. With her background in other practices including yoga nidra and mindfulness, she blends and curates experiences purposefully and heartfully.

Youmin holds this quote from Lofttan dearly to her heart, and it informs many of her workshops “I don’t have any magic to give you. I’m here to help you remember your own.” She founded Xiu Nature Connections – a two-time recipient of Singapore Tourism Board’s Outstanding Wellness Experience Awards 2023 and 2024.

Youmin will be co-facilitating our third Sacred Rest with Nature: a Soulful Retreat at Museflower with Tania from Dec 5 to 10, 2025.
