About the event
What is Forest Therapy?
Forest Therapy is a relational practice that brings people into deeper intimacy with natural places. And one of those natural places is our natural self; it’s a practice that holds the possibility of meeting again the kernel of who we are, what we are born to be, and how we are intended to be of service in the world. Forest Therapy is greatly influenced by and derived from the Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku, forest bathing which is found to have a number of health benefits including boosted immune function, improved cardiovascular and respiratory health, attention restoration, and a reduction in stress and depression.
What should I bring?
Dress for the weather. Layers are always recommended. Consider long white socks and other methods of tick bite prevention. Feel free to bring water and snacks.
