SUMMARY:Forest Bathing with ANFT Forest Therapy Guide Lauren Berg
DESCRIPTION:Saturdays: April 18\, May 16\, June 13\, September 19 & November 7\nAll sessions are 9:15 a.m. – 11:15 a.m.\n$30 for members; $35 non-members (per session) \nRegistration is required here.  \nForest bathing is a guided experience that invites participants to slow down\, engage their senses\, and cultivate a deeper connection with the natural world. Inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku\, forest bathing has been shown to reduce stress\, boost immune function\, and enhance overall well-being. \nDuring the walk\, your guide will offer embodiment-focused “invitations\,” which participants can use as a guideline\, recognizing that each individual has a unique path to follow. Invitations are followed by a time to gather\, listen and share\, during which all expressions are welcome. The walk will end with a light tea tasting. \nLauren Berg has experience leading diverse groups of people through a variety of outdoor educational experiences—multi-day backpacking trips\, day-long high and low ropes courses\, team building events\, and even birding and terrestrial ecology classes\, to name a few. She is a certified guide with the Association for Nature and Forest Therapy\, as well as First Aid and CPR/AED trained. \nThe walk will include changes in grade and walking surfaces as you may go off the main paved path and onto wood carpet or grass. Shoes with good tread are recommended. As this walk will be held outdoors\, please dress for weather conditions and bring a water bottle. Rain or shine.

SUMMARY:Forest Bathing with ANFT Forest Therapy Guide Lauren Berg
DESCRIPTION:Saturdays: April 18\, May 16\, June 13\, September 19 & November 7\nAll sessions are 9:15 a.m. – 11:15 a.m.\n$30 for members; $35 non-members (per session) \nRegistration is required here.  \nForest bathing is a guided experience that invites participants to slow down\, engage their senses\, and cultivate a deeper connection with the natural world. Inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku\, forest bathing has been shown to reduce stress\, boost immune function\, and enhance overall well-being. \nDuring the walk\, your guide will offer embodiment-focused “invitations\,” which participants can use as a guideline\, recognizing that each individual has a unique path to follow. Invitations are followed by a time to gather\, listen and share\, during which all expressions are welcome. The walk will end with a light tea tasting. \nLauren Berg has experience leading diverse groups of people through a variety of outdoor educational experiences—multi-day backpacking trips\, day-long high and low ropes courses\, team building events\, and even birding and terrestrial ecology classes\, to name a few. She is a certified guide with the Association for Nature and Forest Therapy\, as well as First Aid and CPR/AED trained. \nThe walk will include changes in grade and walking surfaces as you may go off the main paved path and onto wood carpet or grass. Shoes with good tread are recommended. As this walk will be held outdoors\, please dress for weather conditions and bring a water bottle. Rain or shine.
