We invite you to experience the deep nature connection of Shinrin-Yoku, Japanese forest therapy (also called Forest Bathing), in the Hambidge forest with Certified Forest Therapy Guide, Phyllis Abramson, RN, PhD. On this 2 1/2 hour walk you will peel the layers of stress away and support healing by experiencing the medicine of the forest. We’ll do a series of relaxing and engaging activities to tap into our senses, hone intuition and connect with the natural world around us. This walk covers a total distance of about 1 mile on Hambidge trails. We will plan to walk under most weather conditions, except major rain or thunderstorms.

Skill level: All levels
Age: 17+
Cost: $30

As always, please dress in layers, wearing long pants, a long-sleeved shirt and closed-toe hiking shoes or boots. Bring water, any medicines you might require, including an Epi-pen if you have severe allergic reactions, and a walking stick if needed.
