Guided Forest Therapy Walks
Experience the Healing Magic of a PNW Rainforest!
What is Forest Therapy?
“Forest Therapy is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku, which translates to "forest bathing." Studies have demonstrated a wide array of health benefits, especially in the cardiovascular and immune systems, and for stabilizing and improving mood and cognition. ”
-Association for Nature and Forest Therapy
What happens on a Forest Therapy walk?
As your dedicated guide, I will lead you on a journey through a magical PNW temperate rainforest with a series of “invitations” meant to open your senses and help you connect with the forest in new ways. Forget the rush! It's time to slow down, reconnect, and rejuvenate your mind and body. After our walk, we will gather for tea and sharing. You'll emerge feeling lighter, stress-free, and deeply connected to the world around and within you.
Join me in this experience where nature becomes your therapy!
100% of the proceeds from your guided walk will go toward the care and maintenance of the forest.
