Dig into your senses, play, and explore with a guided forest bathing walk on Saturday, July 18th from 9am-10:30pm.
Forest Therapy, based on the Japanese practice of “shinrinyoku,” or “forest bathing,” is a guided nature connection experience. Through simple sensory activities, participants slow down and engage with the landscape in a new way, engaging the body and refreshing the mind. This research-based practice facilitates connection with the earth, with the self, and with others and has been shown to increase physical and mental well-being.
We gather together multiple times throughout the walk to share our noticing and practice deep listening. We will be guided by Darrell Hawks, Executive Director of Friends of Mill Ridge Park, who is available for any accommodations that ensure you feel comfortable and safe throughout our walk. Come dressed comfortably with shoes you don't mind getting dirty and a water bottle if you wish.

A $10 donation is suggested.
Location: Mill Ridge Park; 12965 Old Hickory Blvd., Antioch 37013. We’ll meet at the welcome board near the playground.
