Community Forest Bathing

Slow down. Breathe. Listen. Let the forest hold you.

Willsbridge Mill & The Goddess Haven join together to bring you a soothing and deeply grounding Community Forest Bathing session in the tranquil woodlands surrounding Willsbridge Mill.

This monthly gathering is a gentle invitation to return to yourself through nature. We’ll move slowly through the woodland, pausing for grounding practices and moments of quiet reflection. There is no hiking or strenuous activity, just stillness, breath, and connection.

You will be invited to

🌳 Walk mindfully through ancient woodland paths

🌳 Ground yourself with the earth, barefoot if you feel called

🌳 Engage your senses through guided nature connection practices

🌳 Rest, reset, and soothe the nervous system

🌳 Experience the emotional and mental health benefits of being held by nature

This space is especially supportive for those experiencing stress, anxiety, or burnout. Forest bathing can bring a profound sense of calm, presence, and reconnection. It reminds us that we are never separate from the natural world.

Location: Willsbridge Mill, Willsbridge, BS30

Cost: FREE community offering

Donations: Contributions towards the upkeep and preservation of Willsbridge Mill are warmly welcomed. A donation bucket will be available on site.

Please Note:

This is a quiet and contemplative space, and participants are kindly asked to respect the peaceful nature of the gathering. While there will be gentle guidance offered, the ability to settle into silence, even just for a few moments, is an important part of the experience. Please arrive with an open heart and a willingness to honour the stillness.

What to Bring:

• Comfortable weather-appropriate clothing
• Suitable footwear (or be barefoot where safe)
• A small blanket or sit mat if you’d like to pause on the earth

No previous experience is needed, just a desire to connect and be present.

We look forward to sharing this nurturing time with you, under the trees.
