About this Event

Refresh Your Outlook with FOREST BATHING

Spending time in the woods is an easy way to refresh one’s outlook and has been proven to reduce stress, anxiety, negative emotions, reduce blood pressure and activate the parasympathetic nervous system. The experience may allow one to engage and refresh the five senses, absorb the natural oils released by the trees (aromatherapy), help regulate blood pressure, and restore a sense of calm and appreciation for nature.

Taking place at the Reeves Reed Arboretum in Summit, NJ, this event is a part of an ongoing series of self-care and wellness events sponsored by Caring Contact as part of our Caring Contact Wellness Council Initiatives, to support our volunteer Listeners and the community at large.

Caring Contact, a listening community, is devoted to promoting emotional wellbeing and preventing crises by providing opportunities for people to express themselves in a safe environment through the 988 Lifeline and the Caring Contact Warmline.
