Forest Bathing (Shinrin-Yoku)
Begin your experience with a guided forest bathing session, led by a certified Nature and Forest Bathing Guide. Through mindfulness and nature-based invitations, you’ll awaken your senses and connect deeply with the rhythms of the natural world.

Engage your senses by noticing textures, scents, and sounds in the forest

Feel refreshed, restored, and connected to the natural rhythms around you

Charcoal Nature Art
