Forest Therapy: Sitting with the Sky (29 Mar)

During the gentle nature based sensory practice, we'll be greeted by trees of many kinds, each with its own shape, texture, and way of reaching for the evening light. Spend time with these nature beings, and perhaps notice how they lean, breathe or hold space around them. Our steps will eventually lead us to an open space, where the sky stretches wide above us. Here, you're invited to rest your gaze upon the white clouds and blue sky, dressed in the day's evening hues.

About Your Forest Therapy Session
A Forest Therapy session follows a simple structure. While there is a structure, there is no right way to move through it. You are not expected to perform, to feel a certain way, or to share if you do not wish to. The structure simply provides a gentle container so that you can settle more fully into your own connection with nature.
You arrive as you are, and you participate in the way that feels most natural to you.
Arrival and Sensory Awakening
We begin with a short introduction and a guided sensory practice to help everyone arrive, settle, and transition from the pace of the day into a slower rhythm.
Gentle Invitations
A series of sensory invitations will be offered in partnership with nature. These invitations are always optional, and you choose how and whether to engage.
Optional Sharing
After each invitation, there is intentional space to gather and share. Sharing may be through words, sounds, or silence. All forms of sharing are welcome. While always optional, sharing often deepens the practice, as listening to one another can gently expand our own noticing.
Closing
We close the Forest Therapty session by coming back together and expressing gratitude to nature and to the land for hosting us.
