On a guided Forest Therapy walk you'll have the opportunity to slow down, and get out of your head and into your body and senses. Participants are guided through a series of invitations to help pay attention, explore and connect with their surroundings and themselves. At times we will be walking, at other times we may be sitting or standing still and then rejoin in a brief group sharing circle. These slow walks in nature are typically one to two kilometers long and fit for all ages and physical conditions. A forest therapy experience enhances self-reflection, social interaction, and embodied awareness: a state of being fully present – connecting to your body, thoughts, feelings, perceptions and energy, while connected with others, the environment and the world.
