Experience the vibrancy of spring by connecting to nature on this day long Forest Bathing retreat. Slowly walk, pause and de-stress on the beautiful grounds of Rolling Ridge. Give yourself the time to slow down and de-stress.
Follow your certified Nature and Forest Therapy guide through a series of sensory connection invitations to practice Forest Bathing and a new level of Nature Mindfulness. A hot, locally foraged tea will be served to complete the experience at the end of the day.
Please dress appropriately for the weather.
