Based on the Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku\, this practice is similar to meditation\, but instead of sitting quietly\, you will use all of your senses to explore your environment. Observing the nature preserve by breathing in the fresh air\, feeling the dirt beneath you\, or having a fern frond brush against you can have lasting effects on your stress level and ability to stay in the moment. Previous participants were surprised at how impactful they found this experience even as a first-timer. You will be guided through a series of “invitations” or elements in nature to focus on which will allow your mind to relax and stay more in the moment. Each session ends with sharing tea with the other participants; a chance to share what you experience in a welcoming environment. Learn more about forest bathing HERE. \n \n \n \n \n \n Admission is priced at either $35 or $50 to ensure accessibility\, while also fairly compensating our partners; pay what feels right for you. Please note that we need at least 7 participants to host this event.

July 20\, 2024 DESCRIPTION:Registration Required\nNational Moth Week celebrates the beauty\, life cycles\, and habitats of moths. “Moth-ers” of all ages and abilities are encouraged to learn about\, observe\, and document moths in their backyards\, parks\, and neighborhoods. National Moth Week is being held\, worldwide\, during the last full week of July. \nNMW offers everyone\, everywhere a unique opportunity to become a Citizen Scientist and contribute scientific data about moths. Through partnerships with major online biological data depositories\, NMW participants can help map moth distribution and provide needed information on other life history aspects around the globe. \nJoin us at 7:00 to identify and count our native moths!Please be sure and register so we know how many people to expect. (Arrive at 6:30 for a bog tour before our moth-venture.) \nWhy Moths?\nMoths are important pollinators for crops and flowers\, and serve as a food source for birds\, bats\, and other animals. \nMoths are among the most diverse and successful organisms on earth. \nScientists estimate that there are 150\,000\, and possibly more than 500\,000 moth species globally. \nTheir colors and patterns may be dazzling\, or plain\, or cryptically camouflaged. Shapes and sizes range from small as a pinhead (micro-moths) to as large as an adult hand (macro moths). \nWhy So Late?\nMost moths are nocturnal\, they fly at night\, so we look for them at night to see them. But some fly during the day as well. We’ll be using special lights and a bait station to attract them for our observations.Learn more at NationalMothWeek.org \n\n\n\n Notice: JavaScript is required for this content.\nNo Fields Found.
