Is this sentence right?
Hi!
One step getting into the forest, a flush of fresh air flows into my mind and my whole body. It felt like they are purifying my body and sweep my pressure away.
Could anybody help me with it?
Many thanks in advance.

Just a single step into the forest, and a flush of fresh air flows/flowed into my mind and body. It feels/felt like it is purifying my body and sweeping the pressure away. You have to decide whether this is present or past, and choose both verbs in the same way.

Thanks,
But would you please tell me why you write the pressure instead of my pressure?
I hope to know more about it?
Many thanks in advance.

It's pressure on you from outside you. You are not applying the pressure on yourself, so it's not your pressure.
It's not idiomatic to say "my pressure" unless you are referring specifically to your blood pressure. In your sentence you are referring to psychological pressure.
If you insist on using my, you can change it to sweeping my anxieties away.
