About this Event

Start your morning doing something just for you. Take in everything nature has to offer as you practice mindfulness and set up the mood for your day.



What To Expect

On this forest bathing walk, we will explore Mayor Baxtor Woods closely and mindfully to see what it has to offer.

These walks are slow-paced and generally cover less than a mile of trail. During this time the guide, in partnership with the natural space, will offer an evolving series of invitations crafted to help participants slow down and open their senses. This mindfulness opens the heart and allows us to be fully present. Come discover the healing powers of being in nature.
