Forest Bathing at Hillwood

June 15 @ 9:30 am - 11:30 am

$30 – $35

(DC) (Hillwood) Slow down, awaken your senses, and connect with nature as you experience a forest bathing walk in Hillwood’s gardens and grounds. Inspired by the Japanese practice of shinrin-yoku (which translates to “absorbing the forest atmosphere”), forest bathing is a research-based activity designed to promote health and well-being through immersion in natural settings. Participants will be guided on a soothing stroll through the spring gardens at a slow pace. They will be invited to participate in gentle activities designed to engage their senses and tune into the sounds, smells, textures, and sights of nature around them. ​

Friday walks will be led by Certified Forest Therapy Guide Adria S. Zeldin.

Saturday and Sunday walks will be led by Certified Forest Therapy Guide Ana Ka’ahanui.
