Forest Bathing (Summer Solstice Focus) 18th June

Mindful Wanders are an invitation to immerse yourself in nature and absorb through your senses the beauty of each season.

This exploration offers respite in the woods, as we gather in a small group to spend quality, intentional time in nature in this Summer Solstice focused wellbeing workshop.

Benefits of Mindful Wanders

  • Experience and learn how to integrate wellbeing practices into daily life, like outdoor yoga, mindfulness, meditation, creative writing and journaling so that you can improve your ability to self-support and find calm

  • Disconnect from the busyness of everyday life and get the headspace to reflect and unwind

  • Carve out time to slow down, reduce stress, worry and overwhelm and discover how nature can support you on this mission

  • Develop a deeper connection, relationship and respect for our natural spaces

  • Experience forest bathing, where nature meets mindfulness. Originating in Japan in 1982, as “shinrin-yoku”, meaning to bathe / take in the forest’s atmosphere

What you can look forward to:

  • Mindful nature immersive experiences or gatherings taking place across the seasons

  • Each workshop is 2.5 hours long and take place from through the year, allowing you to experience the interconnected flow of the seasons

  • Each gathering will draw to a close with a tea ceremony and some homemade sweet treats

You will experience the dawn and twilight, the sun on your skin and wind in your hair, the rain on your face and connect to all of the elements. Tune into the wisdom of trees and the rhythm of the year. It’s an opportunity to reconnect with yourself and the landscape around you, all in the company of a small group of like-minded people. Gatherings may also include mini bonus practices such as yoga / meditation / journaling or qi gong.

As a local, I’ll share my favourite places with you, where I retreat to restore and guide you through a variety of self-support tools and practices that you can integrate into your everyday.
