Join Leigha Horton of Silvae Spiritus Northwoods Nature Retreat, certified by the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy Guides and Programs, for a guided forest bathing experience under the full Hunter’s Moon! 

Forest bathing is a slow-moving, deeply sensory, mindful and “bodyful” walk in nature that has shown to result in measurable physiological, cognitive, and emotional benefits. Much like walking meditation or yoga, these activities can be practiced on one’s own, almost anywhere, and yet the benefits greatly increase with regular practice. Forest bathing is significantly more immersive when facilitated by properly trained and certified guides—you’ll be guided by an expert through this program!  

Over the course of this walk, you will be given a series of invitations and suggested ways to connect to your natural surroundings. This experience will be mostly silent except for optional light sharing of reflections between invitations, honors each participant’s autonomy, and radiates in and out from a central bonfire.  The walk concludes with tea.

Advanced registration via Dodge Nature Center required.
