Forest Bathing & Nature Therapy Immersion
Details
Forest Bathing, also known as “Nature Therapy,” is an immersive experience in nature that gives you an opportunity to reset your outlook on life and have an encounter with the nature in a way that you have never experienced before.
It is a sensory practice that takes you away from your phone, computer and social media and back to what your body yearns for…..a connection with nature. A sense of peace. A sense of relaxation. A sense of being in the present moment. It provides the perfect time to become a human “be”ing instead of a human “do”ing!
During a Forest Bathing experience, you will be invited to slow down and reconnect with nature’s perfect balance using your senses to see the sunlight playing through the leaves, smell the flowers, and feel and hear the gentle wind whispering to you to return to your native roots and discover your deeper self.
Here's what you can expect on a Forest Bathing/Nature Therapy Immersion:
~ A guided sensory visualization
~ A series of invitations that will help you connect with nature in a way
that you have never done before
~ A tea Ceremony with tea made slash pine tree needles
~ An opportunity to connect with other like-minded nature lovers
Forest Bathing has been scientifically proven to boost immune strength, lift depression, reduce stress, and improve sleep. But beyond these physiological changes, this contemplative experience will show you how important it is for your well-being to take time in nature on a daily basis!
Plan to arrive 15 minutes before the start time. Bring a chair or yoga mat. (I can provide one if necessary.)
Cost is $25 for Botanical Garden members/$35 for non-members (Includes entry fee to the Gardens.)
The Meetup will not be held if it is raining or bad weather is eminent. To get up-to-date info if the Meetup will be held, text Kathy Andio at 561.236.4298.
It is best to pre-register with the Mounts Botanical Gardens. If for some reason you cannot attend, they are REALLY good at refunding your fee. However, contact them not me for a refund. Also, if you pre-register, you will receive notifications of any changes of the event.
