Autumn Pathways: Guided Forest Bathing Session

Engage all your senses in the splendor and color of Autumn in Coastal Maine. Featuring a slow walk and Guided Forest Bathing Session at Fuller Forest. We will walk slowly over one mile total, engage in guided mindful movements and meditations, and end with a tea gathering in the forest. Perfect for beginners and seasoned forest bathers alike. No dogs kindly.

Forest Bathing is an outdoor guided mindfulness group practice with proven health benefits. The session offers a slow guided walk through natural forest settings, several 10-15 minute guided sensory invitations done individually, and then a final tea gathering at the end. Every part of the session is done in a quiet forest setting. The many health benefits include slowing your pulse, lowering blood pressure, improving natural immune system, lowering stress, and increasing creativity…to name a few.
