Description

Have you heard of Forest Bathing or Forest Therapy? Are you interested in a forest experience that may bring memories of childhood wonder and freedom? Perhaps then a slow, gentle time in nature for your wellbeing is what your heart is longing for. Join Peter Schiller – certified Forest Therapy Guide – from “Follow the Forest” www.followtheforest.ca, in an approximately two-and-a-half-hour guided experience that will offer you forest bathing, forest therapy, and teachings of presence where you’ll be invited to be still within your own consciousness and focus on your senses. This will not be a destination hike where we cover a certain amount of distance. Nor will it be an interpretive or exercise event. Rather, it will be a slow meander where you’ll be invited to breathe, to simply be, and focus on and be immersed in, all that is around you. Join us. The forest awaits. We willl meet at Tim Horton’s, First Street, Collingwood and carpool to snowmobilers parking lot in the Pretty River Valley. You can also go straight to the parking lot. 549949 Pretty River Road, Nottawa
