Forest Meditation Walks

Forest Meditation Walk

Come join us for a rejuvenating Forest Meditation Walk at the beautiful Conejo Valley Botanic Garden. Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature. Take some time to unwind among the trees as you connect with the natural world around you.

Inspired by the Japanese practice of shinrin-yoku (forest bathing), this practice offers benefits for body, mind, and spirit. In Forest meditation walks, you'll be guided through gentle invitations to slow down, open the senses, cultivate awareness, and experience the environment designed to recharge your mind, body, and soul.

This practice is slow-paced. This is not a hike and is not a plant identification event.

Please check the forecast and dress for the weather.

Parking & Meeting location: Once you turn off of W. Gainsborough Rd you will be on Jeaunine Drive. Drive to the parking lot at the end. Look for the path to the entrance of the botanic gardens just past the restrooms in the parking lot.

We will meet at the main entrance to the Botanic Garden and walk to the start of the Forest Meditation Walk for the day

Important info for the event:

• Location in the Botanic Garden of the Forest Meditation Walk may change for each walk
• This is a 30 min guided practice and the additional time will allow us to walk from the entrance to the starting location
• Consider bringing extra layers since we will be outdoors
• You may wish to bring water, hat, sunscreen
• Plan to arrive on time or we may have already left the entrance

Cancellation Policy

If we need to cancel due to weather, we make that determination by 5pm the day before and notify via email.
