Acerca de

At Neuro by Nature, I develop and facilitate innovative programs and spaces that blend nature, creativity, and community for the wellbeing of people and earth.

My mission is to cultivate an embodied recognition of our intrinsic connection to nature, emphasizing that each of us—humans and beyond—holds a unique and vital place in an interdependent ecosystem. I believe that this felt realization lies at the root of true values of diversity, equity, inclusion, and environmental stewardship.

My Approach

At Neuro by Nature, my approach is rooted in my diverse background as a Neuroscientist, Biologist, Professor, Artist, and Nature and Forest Therapy Guide. Guided by research and inspired by nature’s wisdom, I create a framework that is both structured and open to personal exploration.

I am deeply committed to ensuring that our programs do not direct participants toward predetermined experiences. Instead, each program is carefully and artfully designed to inspire authentic self-expression and facilitate meaningful connections—with nature, with oneself, and with others. This approach honors the unique journey of each individual while fostering a shared sense of belonging to the natural world.

About me

 

I’m Karina Del Punta, Ph.D., a neuroscientist, artist, and certified Nature and Forest Therapy (Forest Bathing) guide. My curiosity about the natural world has shaped my work and life. As a scientist, I have studied the molecular mechanisms behind sensory perception and behavior. As an artist, I aim to express what cannot be captured in words. As a Forest Bathing guide, I create opportunities for others to experience the healing and deep connection that come from being present with nature.

I hold a Ph.D. in Molecular Neuroscience from The Rockefeller University, where I also served as a Research Professor, and a B.S./M.S. in Biology from the University of Buenos Aires. My research has been published in journals like Nature and has earned prestigious honors. I am also a certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guide through the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy (ANFT) and have completed advanced studies in ecopsychology and depth psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute. Additionally, I serve on the Advisory Board of the Miami Beach Botanical Garden, where I help bridge scientific understanding and nature’s wisdom to inspire meaningful connections.

"Me fui con un renovado sentido de vitalidad. Sentí una profunda sensación de tranquilidad al sumergirme en las vistas, sonidos y sensaciones. Tan simple y tan profundo..."

Michael

“Tuve una experiencia de lo que es la armonía, la paz, la pertenencia y la unidad con la naturaleza, cuando no estan presentes las usuales respuestas de lucha o huida del día a día. Fue como el cálido y reconfortante sentimiento del amor, pero en un nivel de magnitud superior. ¡Fue como amor en esteroides! Pero sin necesidad de ingerir nada o unirme a un monasterio en Tíbet."
