LA Arboretum

LA Arboretum

Jun 25, 2022 | 04:00 P.M. - 06:00 P.M.

301 N Baldwin Ave
Arcadia, CA 91007, USA

Inspired by the Japanese practice of shinrin yoku, Forest Bathing has been scientifically proven to boost immune strength, reduce stress, and improve cognitive functioning. But beyond these physiological changes, Forest Bathing also offers us the opportunity to deepen our relationship with the natural world. On your walk, a certified guide will offer a series of guided invitations to assist you in finding your own authentic way of interacting with the land at the Los Angeles Arboretum. There’s no right or wrong way to do it and it’s great for all ages; just come and be yourself. It’s all welcome in the forest.

440 Montauk Hwy
Great River, NY 11739, USA

Join certified forest therapy guide, Linda Lombardo of Wild Heart Nature Connection, on a walk at Bayard Cutting Arboretum to reconnect with the natural world around us.

These walks are always slow and easy-going, not a hike; not a tour of plants or collections. Walk length: 120 minutes; please wear comfortable, sturdy shoes for walking outdoors. Bring whatever else you require to feel comfortable. Masks are required. Organic bug spray only, please. We also practice physical distancing. Limited to 16 participants. Ages 18 and up.

The Beach

The Beach

Jun 25, 2022 | 09:30 A.M. - 11:00 A.M.

Sea Road, Littlehampton, UK

You're invited to join me for an introduction to Nature Therapy on the beach in Littlehampton, West Sussex. The session is based on the Japanese practice of Shinrin Yoku (Forest Bathing). We'll journey together into the senses to connect with the natural world that is all around us. We'll start near The Beach (the new café opening up on East Beach, Littlehampton) and journey together along the beach, opening up our senses and our hearts to what the natural world wants to offer us in that moment. We do this through a series of invitations - consciously named as there is no right or wrong way to take what is offered to you. Whilst described as a walk - in truth we may travel no more than a quarter of a mile. Sessions are done at a relaxed pace and are open to all. They will take place on the beach - as it is a combination of shingle and sand, sensible footwear is recommended!

The practice of forest bathing encourages you to slow down, relax and reconnect with nature by quieting the mind and awakening the senses.

Through a series of invitations, you’ll have the opportunity to be present in the moment, deepening your connection with nature and community, and enjoying the many gifts nature has to offer. Inspired by Shinrin-Yoku, the Japanese art of immersing oneself in a forest environment, forest bathing walks invite our guests to spend time in nature in a way that invites healing for ourselves, our fraught ecosystems, and our community. It is true nature therapy! The walk culminates in a tea ceremony with snacks. Prefer a private experience? Private walks are available daily, year-round, with advance notice. Please reach out anytime with questions or requests. We're looking forward to seeing you soon!

Pine Community Center

Pine Community Center

Jun 26, 2022 | 12:00 P.M. - 02:30 P.M.

100 Pine Park Drive
Wexford, PA, USA

Join us for this immersive forest experience where you consciously take in the sights, sounds, and smells of the forest. It’s not about doing anything strenuous or getting your heart rate up — rather, the point is to slow down and fully experience in your own individual way what the forest has to offer. Our walk will last from two to two and a half hours. With Certified Forest Therapy Guide Doug Jones’ guidance, we’ll wander along the paths of the Pine Community Park, stopping every so often for invitations designed to maximize being present and deepen your connection with nature. Maybe the best thing about Forest Bathing is that there is no right or wrong way to do it. Just come as you are. No advance preparation is needed other than arriving ten minutes early for the walk and dressing appropriately for the weather. The terrain mildly downhill. The trail is wide and well maintained. There may be muddy spots, and we will go down a short steep section. We will meet on the front porch of the Community Center. If you have mobility issues, please contact Doug in advance.

Stanmer Park

Stanmer Park

Jun 26, 2022 | 11:00 A.M. - 02:30 P.M.

Brighton, UK

Join me for a morning of Forest Bathing at Stanmer Park! We will be opening with a small guided meditation and then doing a series of mindfulness-based activities designed to awaken the senses and explore your connection with nature. The community space we will be using has a lovely fire pit, so we will be concluding our session around a campfire with a small tea ceremony. Please bring some water and something to sit on at the end of the walk (e.g. small blanket or sitting mat). If it rains the walk will still go ahead so please dress appropriately. There are no toilets on site, but the space is not that far from the One Garden cafe, which is a 5-10 minute walk away. Each walk is different and the activities will depend on what the forest is offering us that day, but everything can be adapted to suit what feels comfortable for you. Please let me know if you have any mobility concerns ahead of the walk, so that I can plan a suitable route. Please note that attendees under the age of 18 must have a guardian with them. The recommended minimum age for the session is 13-14. Please note that unfortunately this session is not dog-friendly. Although I love dogs, the activities are designed to really slow down and tune into your body and unfortunately dogs may provide a distraction to yourself and other participants.
