Forest Bathing
About this Event
Forest bathing, known as Shinrin Yoku, is the Japanese practice of mindfully and therapeutically immersing oneself in nature.
Breathe in the fresh air and immerse yourself in the present moment. This enriching experience fosters a deeper understanding of your unique relationship with nature and encourages the lasting benefits of time spent with nature: reduced stress, increased creativity, and more. Participants are invited to engage each sense and connect more deeply with the world around them. This session is led by certified forest therapy guide Alyson Wakeen.
Alyson founded Cambium in 2022, answering a quiet but persistent call to help people rekindle their connection with the natural world. As a wildlife biologist, Alyson has long been attuned to the rhythms of nature and became certified in shinrin-yoku after experiencing for herself the healing power of nature. With a blend of scientific insight and deep reverence for the natural world, she creates experiences that open space for stillness, connection, and transformation. Through nature retreats, shinrin-yoku walks, and other intentional gatherings, Alyson invites others to breathe deeply, come into the present moment, and remember the profound wisdom that nature has to offer.
