So what exactly is FOREST BATHING?
First and foremost it is not going into the Forest in your bathing suit!
It is moving through the Forest very slowly and bathing yourself in the gifts the Forest shares with us.

This webinar will feature a VIRTUAL WALK, not the best way to experience the Forest but you will get a sense of what it is all about.
Some of you may be outside…..good
Some may be inside, hopefully by a window with a plant by your side.
The most important thing for you to do is to clear your mind of today’s clutter and listen to my prompts with an open mind.
This will be a somewhat imaginal walk since we are not using our feet!
But it should help all of you get to know a little more about Forest Bathing.
