Forest Bathing /Contemplative Photography

Forest Bathing (also known as the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku) includes a slow walk, invitations for stillness and exploration, and sharing with others in the group. In the practice of Forest Bathing, participants are guided into nature step-by-step and invited to engage each of their five senses. The growing body of scientific knowledge demonstrates the benefits of spending time in nature, as a wellness practice, and as an effective way to manage stress.

Complementing this experience is Contemplative Photography, a practice that encourages you to see and photograph the world in fresh, insightful ways. By using the camera on your phone or a traditional camera, you will transform your tool into a medium for visual meditation, revealing the hidden richness and beauty of your surroundings. Together, these practices offer a harmonious blend of mindfulness and creativity, allowing you to embrace the tranquility and wonder of nature.

All skill levels are encouraged to attend to engage in the wonderful meditative practice of shirin yoku with contemplative photography.
