Full Moon Forest Therapy

Enjoy the Gardens and the changing evening skyline while “Forest Bathing” under the energy of the Full Moon. “Forest Bathing” or Forest Therapy is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku, an evidenced-based holistic practice that uses immersion in natural environments to enhance health and wellness. Join Forest Therapy Guide Emmie Brenzel, for a slow wander in the gardens during sunset, twilight, and the rising full moon. Participants will be invited to connect with nature, awaken their senses, and activate their imaginations. There will be opportunities for silence, observation, listening, and optional group sharing. The nature walk concludes with a tea ceremony. Please dress for the weather with layers recommended keeping in mind that temperatures will feel cooler when seated, moving slowly, or closer to sundown. Walks are limited to fifteen participants.
