As humans, we have a mesmerizing capacity and power to define our lives, and yet the mysterious and transformative force of the Universe is all-encompassing and beyond our control. Recognizing this natural give and take means embracing the rhythms of our life and routinely shedding all that is, so that we can welcome in all that can be.

As the hustle and bustle of the holiday seasons approach,  Nature’s great transformation shows us what it looks like to accept change with humility and grace. Leave the devices behind and reconnect with the spirit of gratitude on this gentle two-hour forest immersion designed to help us slow down, quiet the mind and soothe the spirit for rest and renewal.

Forest bathing is a gentle activity accessible for most fitness levels. Over the course of two hours we will walk on a forest trail at a very slow pace for no more than a quarter of a mile. It is a great experience for couples, family members, friends and small groups.  

This is part three of a three-part Forest Bathing Fall Series hosted by NOVA Parks and Meadowlark Botanical Gardens.
