Friends Forest Bathing Experience

Engage your senses and reconnect with the natural world on a two-hour guided mindful wander through the Commons’ autumnal woodlands.
About this Event

Not a fungus foray, not a tree walk, not a brisk stride across the commons with the dog. Forest Bathing is a slow, mindful and sensory immersion in nature - and usually in silence! The benefits can be profound; boosting the immune system, balancing blood pressure, improving sleep quality and regulating the nervous system.

Led by Wendy Rose, the session will last between 2.5-3 hours and include some kneeling, handling natural material and a final lying relaxation on the ground (weather permitting).

Wendy is a local resident and Friend of WPCC with a background in psychology and consultancy. She has been specialising in the coaching and development of senior leaders in industry, charities and academia in the UK and globally for over 25 years. Also qualified in mindfulness and breath work, she is currently training to be a Forest Bathing guide with the Forest Bathing Institute.
