Soak up the spring air and awaken with nature as we slowly walk the coastal woods and vernal pool habitats at Fuller Forest Preserve. Session includes gentle mindful movement, a series of guided sensory invitations, slow gentle walking over 1/2 mile to a mile total and ends with a tea gathering. Perfect for beginners and seasoned forest bathers alike. Space is limited.Forest Bathing is an outdoor guided mindfulness group practice with proven health benefits. The session offers a slow guided walk through natural forest settings, several 10-15 minute guided sensory invitations done individually, and then a final tea gathering at the end. Every part of the session is done in a quiet forest setting. The many health benefits include slowing your pulse, lowering blood pressure, improving natural immune system, lowering stress, and increasing creativity…to name a few.
Walk is free and open to the public. Registration is required here: https://www.yorklandtrust.org/event/frog-songs-and-vernal-pools-guided-forest-bathing/. Donations are always welcome and appreciated!
