Yoga + Forest Bathing
APR 10 2022 8:00 AM
Event Summary
Enjoy an awakened relaxation into your body and open yourself to healing through Yoga + Forest Bathing! You can first join Steffany at 8:00 - 9:00 AM for gentle movement, breath work, and meditation intended to reduce stress, increase relaxation, and ground the body/mind. No experience is required. We encourage you to bring your own mat; additional mats will be available. Steffany is an experienced registered yoga teacher and a mental health counselor.
Steffany's guided movement will prepare you for forest bathing from 9:15 - 11:30 AM, led by Connie Svoboda, Certified Forest Therapy Guide. Forest bathing is a slow-paced, therapeutic, guided walk that promotes wellness through a series of gentle, sensory-opening invitations. It’s a time for individual, quiet reflection. Studies have shown a wide array of health benefits to being in nature, especially in the cardiovascular and immune systems, and to help stabilize mood and improve cognition. A growing number of health professionals are prescribing a walk in the woods to complement or even substitute for traditional medicine!
