Description
Hosted by park partner, Virginia Master Naturalist Merrimac Farm Chapter, Forest Bathing is a slow, mindful immersion in Nature that originated in Japan. The guide will suggest voluntary activities called invitations that help participants let go of the busyness of everyday life and immerse themselves in the soothing sensuality of nature. Forest Bathing has many health benefits, including lowering blood pressure, boosting the immune system, and alleviating stress. It also clears the mind and increases creativity.
Wear long pants and walking shoes, bring water and insect repellant for this experience.
