Forest Bathing Walk

Join yoga teacher and health psychologist Lisa Hynes for a gentle group walk and meditation event at the Garden. Forest bathing is a Japanese practice which has become an influential strategy for maintaining or building wellbeing since the 1980's. A growing evidence base of international research suggests Forest Bathing is an effective approach to stress management. Combining gentle walking, mindfulness meditation practices, insights into the natural treasures of the gardens, and group discussion, we will unwind and refresh together, and see the forest like you've never seen it before. All ages. Free for WVBG members, $15 for non-members. Space is limited, register today! Please pre-register for ALL activities 48 hours in advance at www.wvbg.org.
