Join us as we celebrate the first day of Spring with a guided Forest Bathing walk!

The Japanese practice Shinrin Yoku, commonly known as Forest Bathing, encourages us to slow down and fully immerse ourselves in nature. This highly sensory experience is accompanied by countless health benefits, including stress relief, lowered blood pressure, and heightened attention span. Local Nature and Forest Therapy Guide, Lucy Heggenstaller, will guide us on a Forest Bathing walk through the forest of Shaver’s Creek, allowing us to connect with the natural world. The invitations used in this session are designed for older children and adults.

This program will be limited to a maximum of 15 people. You must register to attend this event, but please only register if you plan to attend as registration will close when the 15 people limit is reached. This program will be hosted entirely out of doors, so please dress for the weather. Masks are required to be worn by all participants when physical distancing is not possible.

Participants will meet at Shaver’s Creek in the front yard.

Please note: We are offering two sessions of this event – please limit your registration to only one session.

Register for Session 1 (early session: 9am-10:30am)

Register for Session 2 (late session: 11am-12:30pm)
