Step into Mother Earth’s own “Doctor’s Office” – The Forest

With Forest Therapy Practitioner Rylynn McQuillen

Limited seating. RSVP HERE.

Our souls are so busy that we forget to connect to what grounds us… The Forest. Forest therapy, or shinrin-yoku (Japanese for “forest bathing”), is a guided, research-based practice of immersing yourself in nature. It involves slowing down, unplugging from technology, and engaging all your senses to absorb the restorative atmosphere of a natural environment, promoting profound mental and physical health benefits:

• Reduce Stress: Lower cortisol levels, decrease pulse rate, and reduce blood pressure.
• Boost Immunity: Inhale beneficial natural oils (phytoncides) released by trees, which are shown to boost the body’s immune system.
• Improve Mental Health: Alleviate symptoms of depression, anxiety, and fatigue.
• Enhance Focus: Improve attention, cognitive function, and mood.

Please bring a yoga mat or blanket.
