Winter Solstice Introduction to Forest Bathing Walk

Come celebrate the Winter Solstice amongst the evergreens at Janes Island! The Winter Solstice is a time for rebirth, renewal, and to celebrate the return of the light. This one-hour Introduction to Forest Bathing will be a condensed version of the longer 2 or 3 hour guided nature & forest therapy walks. The walk will provide a taste of the healing and wellness benefits of forest bathing. We will move slowly and cover a short distance, connecting to nature with an open heart and with our senses through a series of guided, sensory invitations.

Research has shown that 'bathing in the environment of the forest' has many positive health benefits. The process of re-remembering and re-knowing our bodily connection to nature can lead to reduced stress, a decrease in blood pressure, a reduction in anxiety & depression and an increased feeling of comfort and calm.

Dress for the weather and wear comfortable clothing and shoes. The walk be held entirely outdoors. Meet at the picnic table behind the nature center and next to the observation tower.

*I am also offering a 2 hour walk on December 17 for $15. You can learn more, register and pay here: https://www.forestbathingfinder.com/product/janes-island-state-park-2-hour-guided-nature-forest-therapy-walk/
