Remote Forest-Bathing Session

Whether you're looking to switch off from your busy life, bring a little nature connection into your day or enjoy a guided meditation to support your wellbeing - these 'live' sessions are for you! 

Created so you can fit them into your day at a nature location of your choose to makes it easiest for you.

During the session you'll be introduced you to the mindful practice of Shinrin-Yoku, or as it's known in the UK, Forest-Bathing - immersing your whole self in nature. My intention is to create a relaxing experience to support your wellbeing so you can take some time that's focused on you.

How the session works

We'll gather in real time on zoom (audio only) and my voice will lead you through the session.  All you need to do is be somewhere in nature with phone signal so you can log in.  

Where to be

Anywhere in nature where you can safely access nature (and have permission to do so) is perfect. You can be in a woodland, your local park, a nature reserve or even in your garden...  You'll find information to help you prepare for the session further below.

Can't make the time - catch the replay

If you can't make the live time book a space and you'll receive the recording to do in your own time. The audio will also be available to buy from the shop afterwards.

I love sharing this time in nature together, using technology to support us in gathering from near and far to connect with nature makes me appreciate the modern world a whole lot more!

2022 Session Inspiration

2022 sessions are inspired by, and run in line with, the Celtic Tree Zodiac Calendar. The Celtics believed trees were an infinite source of wisdom and they played a big part in astrology and the zodiac. 

The tree calendar spans across the year and is aligned to the cycles of the moon. The energy of the trees adds another supportive layer and understanding to the seasonal, natural cycle that we’re in. Spending time with a certain tree can help to bring guidance, gain clarity and ease your journey.

Much of my learnings about tree energy are inspired by Glennie Kindred

Preparation

• make sure the nature spot you’ve chosen to be in for the session is safe for you to be in and that you have permission to be there, it's accessible to the public.
• please be at your nature spot 5 minutes before the session begins. If you need to walk from a car park or from your home/office etc. please do that before the session so you’re ready to start on time
• make sure you’ll be warm enough and protected from the weather. You’ll be walking slowly and sitting still so your body temperature will drop quickly, its best to take extra layers with you and wrap up more than you expect. 

You'll receive advice and support to ensure you get the most out of the session after booking.

Further below you'll find a "Preparation Guide" to support you. Your safety, the safety of others and the protection of the natural world is of the upmost importance.
