About this Event
In this 2-hour session, the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy trained guide Monica Wenzel will walk you through sensory invitations to help you slow down, awaken your senses, and reconnect with nature.
What is Forest Bathing?
Forest bathing is a practice that supports health and wellness through guided immersion in forests and other environments to promote the well-being of both people and the land. It is inspired by Shinrin-yoku, the Japanese practice of “Forest Bathing.” where people spend time in forested areas to enhance health, wellness, and happiness.
On Forest bathing walks, participants are guided through a clearly defined sequence of invitations to slow down, allow the senses to open, and experience the environment to deepen the reciprocal relationship between people and the forest. This supports the wholeness and well-being of both.
Please bring a lawn chair or yoga mat and wear sturdy boots. Be sure to arrive on time to walk to our location together.
