Forest bathing (shinrin-yoku) broadly means bringing in the forest atmosphere with all of one's senses. Not simply a walk in the woods, it is the conscious and contemplative practice of being immersed in the sights, sounds and smells of the forest. Researchers, primarily in Japan and South Korea, have established a growing body of scientific literature on the diverse health benefits.
Come as you are, leave feeling grounded and renewed! The experience is limited to 15 participants and you'll have time for solitude as well as feeling a connection to your fellow forest bathers. The entire experience takes place outside on a private property and private hiking trail. Rachel and Tami will welcome everyone with an opening circle and then guide you on the trail, pausing to share invitations that will enhance your experience. You'll seal the day with a closing circle and snacks.
The trail includes ascending and descending a moderate incline. The pace is slow throughout the experience.
Yes, there is a home on the property with a lovely bathroom for our use.
Dress comfortably and wear sneakers or hiking shoes with traction. Bring a water bottle and anything else you like to have outdoors (bug spray, hat, etc.)
In case of inclement weather (heat wave, heavy rain) participants will receive an email cancellation the morning of the retreat and a full refund.
