Shinrin-Yoku Guided Walk
*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 11/08/2020
Forest Bathing is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku and has been scientifically proven to boost immune strength, reduce stress, and improve cognitive functioning. It offers more than physiological shifts; it shares a space to connect deeply with the natural world and remember our interconnectedness with all life.
By slowing down and being present, we offer our bodies, minds, and hearts a nourishing break from the daily stress and challenges we are currently facing. Forest Bathing is a practice that calms the nervous system and reminds us to be present to the gift of life.
While on the walk, you will receive a series of guided invitations to support your unique interaction with the land. It is an opportunity to open your senses and invite in the wisdom of the Earth and your body. These October Walks will offer the opportunity to notice the shift into Autumn.
No experience necessary; just an open heart and willingness to connect.
