Autumn Rewilding

• Certified nature and forest therapy guide Tamara Murray will offer thoughtfully crafted invitations to connect with nature.
• Nature connection experiences are inspired by the Japanese practice of shinrin yoku, which translates to "forest bathing" and is linked with health and well-being. (No actual bathing involved!)

Unlike a hike or a naturalist walk, we'll give our bodies and brains a break by simply using our senses to connect with nature.

• About the practice: After introductions, you'll learn more about the origins of nature connection and its physical and mental health benefits
• Connect with nature using our senses: I'll offer a variety of invitations for you to slow down, tap into your senses, and experience this beautiful place
• Moments of sharing and listening: We'll have moments where we'll come together and are invited to share what we're noticing
• Tea and a snack: We'll close with tea and a light snack, as well as have the opportunity to chat as a community
• Welcoming space: I'm a firm believer that everyone belongs in nature; I create a welcoming space for people from all walks of life and outdoor experience levels
