Forest Bathing

Thursday, September 12, 2024 09:30 AM - 12:00 PM

Coined shinrin-yoku in Japan in the 1980's, forest bathing is the eco therapeutic practice of spending time immersed in nature, absorbing it with all your senses. The physiological and psychological benefits last for days afterward with the additional benefit of a new appreciation of our precious woodland and its inhabitants. This is a beginner-rated walk along the Nature Trail with long pauses to sit and enhance our awareness of our surroundings, it is an approximately 1-hour program. A small mat is beneficial to ensure a dry seat and wear warmer clothes as we will be sitting for longer periods of time. This program is limited to those age 14 and up. Pay $5 per person (cash or check) at the office upon arrival. Please register in advance by calling 518-793-0511.
