Forest Bathing - Restore Yourself in Nature

Feeling overwhelmed? Burnt out from the hamster-wheel, like you are constantly doing-doing-doing? The Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku, or forest bathing, is the simple and therapeutic act of spending time in a forest. This guided immersion experience moves us slowly through the park, offering a series of sensory invitations to simply be, in the moment. During this calming experience, we will practice easy techniques to help you regulate your nervous system. Find out how spending time in nature can increase your physical and mental resilience by reducing stress and improving your sleep, mood, concentration, energy levels, and more. Come refill your cup!

Forest Bathing is lead by Mileva Huljev, who holds a Guide certification through the Association for Nature & Forest Therapy (ANFT) and believes that this practice offers a pathway to remember how to immerse yourself in nature; to rest from the stressors of daily life. Also, Forest Bathing is more than just 'going for a walk'. It is an opportunity to slow down physically and mentally, through a series of guided invitations using your senses. These experiences increase individual wellbeing and lead to a deeper appreciation for our planet’s land and waterways.
