About the event

What is Forest Bathing? Also known as Forest Therapy, this experience is a slow, mindful immersion in nature that originated in Japan.


Master Naturalist, Emily Hampton, will lead you in voluntary activities called invitations as we slowly move through the Forest and connect with the environment using all of our senses. This practice helps participants let go of the busyness of everyday life and experience the soothing sensuality of nature. Forest Bathing is deeply grounding, has many health benefits, including lowering blood pressure and boosting the immune system. Come and see what it’s all about!
