Description

From the Japanese 'shinrin-yoku', the practice of forest bathing means to immerse oneself in the forest and soak in the atmosphere through the senses. Today's walk will focus on connecting to nature through mindfulness, as we explore our senses and the present moment through short, guided, meditations in the forest. Through this practice, we aim to deepen our connection to our mind, our body, and the life around us in nature. Forest bathing has been shown to help decrease stress levels and anxiety, and helps improve the immune system and symptoms of depression, to name a few benefits. Come explore a new way of walking through the forest! Led by Educator Lauren Lynch.Open to ages 10 and up. Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
