About this event

Hi Nature Lover! Forest Bathing , also known as “ Nature Therapy ,” is an immersive experience in nature that gives you an opportunity to reset your outlook on life and have an encounter with the nature in a way that you have never experienced before.

It is a sensory practice that takes you away from your phone, computer and social media and back to what your body yearns for…..a connection with nature. A sense of peace. A sense of relaxation. A sense of being in the present moment. It provides the perfect time to become a human “be”ing instead of a human “do”ing!

During a Forest Bathing experience, you will be invited to slow down and reconnect with nature’s perfect balance using your senses to see the sunlight playing through the leaves, smell the flowers, and feel and hear the gentle wind whispering to you to return to your native roots and discover your deeper self.

Nature has been waiting for you!

Here's what you can expect on a Forest Bathing/Nature Therapy Immersion: ~ A guided sensory visualization ~ A series of invitations that will help you connect with nature in a way that you have never done before ~ A tea Ceremony with tea made from slash pine tree needles ~ An opportunity to connect with other like-minded nature lovers

Forest Bathing has been scientifically proven to boost immune strength, lift depression, reduce stress, and improve sleep. But beyond these physiological changes, this contemplative experience will show you how important it is for your well-being to take time in nature on a daily basis! Mounts Botanical Gardens are located at 531 Military Trail in West Palm Beach.

Plan to arrive at 12:45 PM , allowing yourself a little time to transition into the peaceful rhythm of the day before we begin together at 1:00 PM . Bring a chair or yoga mat. (I can provide one if necessary.)

Cost: $25 for Mounts Botanical Gardens members / $35 for non-members includes FREE entry to the Gardens. Arrive a little early and wander through the Gardens at your own pace, letting the beauty of nature begin to quiet your mind and open your senses.
