Forest Bathing with Justin Ferko, a Certified Guide with the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy

When was the last time you had a moment to just be? Are you looking to disconnect from technology and the busy-ness of life? Do you long to reconnect with Earth?

You’re invited to an afternoon of Forest Bathing. A Forest Bathing walk is a slow meditative 2-2.5 hour guided walk of a mile or less in which you will be invited to experience the natural environment at various locations on the land. The practice originated in Japan where it is known as shinrin yoku. It’s called “Forest Bathing” because we walk under the trees and trees produce phytoncides, although invisible to us, they protect trees from fungi and research shows that being in the presence of phytoncides boosts our immune system!

As your guide, Justin will support your experience by inviting your awareness of your senses and offering a series of invitations. Each walk concludes with tea and the invitation to share your experience with the other participants.

REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED AND THERE IS LIMITED SPACE TO JOIN.
