What to expect
This 2.5 hour experience is a slow walk among the water features around the farmhouse and the moonlit fields of Bonne et Belle.
The paths will be some blend of pavement, lawn, and footpaths on mostly even terrain.
During the walk, your guide will offer a series of invitations, prompts of a sort, for connecting your senses to the natural world around you.
These invitations typically last 10-15 minutes each. Following each invitation, the group will gather for the opportunity to share or simply listen to others’ sharings.
The experience will conclude fireside at the White Barn with a tea ceremony and a light snack.
WHY BOOK A NATURE & FOREST BATHING SESSION?
Spending time in nature—even for short periods—has been shown in multiple scientific studies worldwide to lower heart rate, reduce stress, reduce inflammation, and boost immunity—just to name a few benefits!
Here’s what Yale scientists have to say about spending time in nature:
“These studies have shown that time in nature — as long as people feel safe — is an antidote for stress:
It can lower blood pressure and stress hormone levels, reduce nervous system arousal, enhance immune system function, increase self-esteem, reduce anxiety, and improve mood.
Attention Deficit Disorder and aggression lessen in natural environments, which also help speed the rate of healing.
In a recent study, psychiatric unit researchers found that being in nature reduced feelings of isolation, promoted calm, and lifted mood among patients.”
