Shinrin-yoku: Forest Bathing
  • This event has passed.

Shinrin-yoku, or forest bathing, is rooted in the traditional Japanese reverence for the natural world and dedicated to promoting health, happiness, and a sense of awe. Anisa George, a certified forest therapy guide, facilitates a series of interactions with nature that cultivate presence, calm, and profound joy. Discover how to unlock the door to new connections and intimacy with the environment through this guided meditation. Dress for the weather and bring a water bottle and snack, a light backpack to carry your belongings, and something comfortable to sit on in case of wet ground.

This program has been canceled as of 9/7/23.

(Originally scheduled to take place on Sunday, September 17, 2023)
