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. We will send an email the week before to confirm. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n What Previous Participants Say\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n “I felt connected to this place and my tree.”\n \n \n \n \n \n -10th grade student after participating with her class\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n “The leader was very respectful of everyone and allowed everyone to choose how to participate in the mindfulness… gave space to individuals to make their own path.”\n \n \n \n \n \n – Mountaineer after participating in a mindful restoration project at SHADOW\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n “I left feeling refreshed…”\n \n \n \n \n \n – Mountaineer after participating in mindful restoration at SHADOW URL:https://shadowhabitat.org/event/guided-forest-meditation-2/ LOCATION:Shadow Lake Nature Preserve\, 21656 184th Ave SE\, Renton\, WA\, 98058\, United States CATEGORIES:Community Class,Guided Nature Walks,Partner Workshop,Summer Programs ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://shadowhabitat.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/CFTxVA-10.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Cecilia":MAILTO:cecilia@shadowhabitat.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240927T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240927T130000 DTSTAMP:20260614T013330 CREATED:20240915T010945Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240915T011848Z UID:35515-1727438400-1727442000@shadowhabitat.org SUMMARY:Guided Nature Walk: All Things Bog DESCRIPTION:This is one of our favorite times of year to walk the Bog Trail.
