Forest Bathing with Horses at Belos Cavalos

Forest bathing, or Shinrin Yoku, is the Japanese practice of slowing down, awakening your senses, and immersing yourself in the natural world. Guided by Jenny Harrow-Keeler, a certified nature and forest therapy guide, you’ll be invited into mindful, sensory practices that support relaxation, connection, and healing.

This offering takes forest bathing into a new dimension by weaving in time with the horses at Belos Cavalos. Horses are highly sensitive, intuitive beings who mirror and respond to our presence with profound gentleness and wisdom. Together with the healing presence of trees, land, and sky, this experience invites you to connect with the more-than-human world in a way that is deeply grounding and restorative.

• Welcome & Introduction: Learn about forest bathing, equine therapy, and how these practices can support wellbeing.
• Guided Sensory Practice in Nature: Slow down and tune into the sights, sounds, scents, and textures around you.
• Horse Connection: Spend time in guided interaction with the horses, opening to their presence as sensitive partners in healing.
• Sharing & Integration: Gather as a group to reflect, integrate insights, and carry practices into daily life.

This program is limited to 20 participants to create an intimate and spacious experience.

We offer a sliding scale of $55 – $95 per person to make this program accessible while sustaining our ability to offer it regularly.

• $95: Community Supporter — helps cover costs and contributes to making space for others.
• $75: Standard Rate — covers the true cost of participation.
• $55: Supported Rate — for those who need financial flexibility.

If the lower end of the sliding scale is still out of reach, please email . We will do our best to ensure this experience is accessible.

At Belos Cavalos, we utilize the wisdom of the horse to enhance human connection, facilitating a process of healing when pain and trauma are too severe to openly discuss. Through equine experientially-based recovery and education programs, the horses allow us to awaken a vision of possibilities.
