This special session of Forest Bathing is specifically for people who are grieving. No matter what you’re grieving for, you are welcome. There will be opportunities to speak your grief out loud, or not – in the forest, you decide what your heart, body, and spirit need.
Experience a two-hour guided forest bathing walk through Hoyt Arboretum’s unique tree collection and forested areas. Forest Bathing (also known as Forest Therapy) offers many health benefits from stress relief to immune system and mood support.
Registration is required.
