Autumn Equinox Celebration – A Guided Forest Bathing Experience

September 20 @ 1:30 pm - 4:00 pm
Celebrate the upcoming autumn equinox and come into the natural cycles and rhythm of nature. Restore and replenish for the season ahead. Our time together includes gentle mindful movement, nature meditation, and opportunities to connect with the natural world along the way. The session concludes with tea together. The walk is about 1.5-miles round trip over easy to moderate terrain.
Forest bathing is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku – taking in the forest atmosphere. As a growing global wellness movement, it is backed by nearly 40 years of scientific research on the holistic benefits of immersing yourself in nature. These benefits include reduced stress and blood pressure, increased creativity and focus, improved mood and sleep, and a boost to immune functions. In addition to the health benefits, this practice offers a pathway of reconnection to our Earth, restoring our relationship with the natural world for the well-being of all.
Registration: FREE. Register here.

Rain or shine event. Ages 18+. No pets please.
