Forest bathing is a guided experience that invites participants to slow down, engage their senses, and cultivate a deeper connection with the natural world. Inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku, forest bathing has been shown to reduce stress, boost immune function, and enhance overall well-being.
During the walk, your guide will offer embodiment-focused “invitations,” which participants can use as a guideline, recognizing that each individual has a unique path to follow. Invitations are followed by a time to gather, listen and share, during which all expressions are welcome. The walk will end with a light tea tasting.
The walk will include changes in grade and walking surfaces as you may go off the main paved path and onto wood carpet or grass. Shoes with good tread are recommended. As this walk will be held outdoors, please dress for weather conditions and bring a water bottle. Rain or shine.
Lauren Berg bio: Lauren Berg has spent over 12 years helping people connect with the outdoors, from facilitating ropes courses and guiding backpacking trips, to leading forest bathing walks. She is a certified guide with the Association for Nature and Forest Therapy, as well as First Aid and CPR/AED trained. Whether hiking in the mountains or savoring a quiet moment with coffee and birdsong, Lauren believes nature offers a space for reflection, restoration, and growth. Through gentle, sensory-based invitations, forest bathing participants are invited to slow down, engage their senses, and experience the healing benefits of time in nature.
