Nurtured by Nature: A Wellness Experience

---

Event Summary

In contrast to a hike where we are focused on getting from Point A to Point B, this wellness experience focuses on slowing down a lot and noticing our relationship to the world around us through the senses of our body.  It’s a practice of awareness, relaxation, and reconnecting to the fact that we live on a living and breathing planet, full of plants, animals, birds and an expansive more-than-human world. 

Want to go pet that moss and notice how soft it is?  Go do it. Want to smell the scent of crushed up forest leaves?  Gather up a handful and enjoy. Want to lay back and watch the clouds through the trees?  Settle in and take your time.

A growing number of health professionals are prescribing a walk in the woods to complement or even substitute for traditional medicine – see what it can do for you.  We will be on a slightly hilly soft surface trail for around ½ mile to accommodate those with mobility issues. A set of steps leading down to the river is an optional route. This personal experience is limited to ten people. Your guide will be Connie Svoboda, Certified Forest Therapy Guide.
