Maureen Stine is a Certified Forest Therapy Guide (ANFT - Association of Nature and Forest Therapy Guides and Programs). Forest bathing is a slow, easy meander outdoors using all available senses. Unlike hiking, birding or other kinds of outdoor recreation, the emphasis is simply on relaxation in nature. It is a chance to unplug, slow down and awaken the senses without needing to “do” anything. The guided experience combines rest and wandering, interspersed with facilitated group gatherings and solo time.

Adults +18 only
Cost: $30/person
10am-12pm

Participants are encouraged to bring personal water, dress in our standard warm Michigan layers, wear comfortable outdoor footwear that could get wet from morning dew or your average seasonal wet/muddy terrain. Hats or sunglasses come in handy sometimes. Folks are invited to sit or stand three or four times during the forest bathing experience, so you may wish to bring a yoga mat, lightweight portable camping chair or even a rolled-up towel - if you care to sit.

This walk will be offered in light rain or shine.
