Shinrin Yoku: Forest Bathing for Your Health
April 28, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm
$35 – $40
Anisa George, Certified Forest Therapy Guide, Nationally Certified Health and Wellness Nurse Coach
Shinrin Yoku, also known as Forest Bathing or Forest Therapy, is an ancient practice that is now supported by scientific research. Improved immune function, reduced cortisol levels, increased cognition and memory, and improved mood are just some of the clinical findings from this practice. Facilitated by a trained guide to help support your own relationship to the healing benefits of nature, this experience allows for mindful connection to the “more than human world.” Participants move at a slow pace and are invited to connect in a sensorial way to the beautiful surroundings of the Morris Arboretum. Leave the hectic world behind and come explore this ancient wisdom.
Meet at the Morris Arboretum’s Visitor Center. The class is all outdoors. Dress for the weather.
