Somatic Rest Circle: “Finding your self amidst the noise: Cultivating a sense of peace (in tumultuous times)”
Special Event: Session 4 🌲 Forest Bathing Walk **Important:** After booking, email Vivian at info@joyinmovement.org for details.
Forest bathing, or "shinrin-yoku," is a Japanese practice that involves immersing oneself in a forest environment to connect with nature and oneself. This slow, mindful walk reduces stress, lowers blood pressure, boosts the immune system, and improves mood, focus, and overall well-being. You will be guided through simple sensory activities that will leave you feeling relaxed and peaceful, and can help bring new perspectives and insights.
This session is part of stage 3 of the Somatic Rest Circle series, exploring boundaries and "branching out." Prior attendance is not required; the class can be a stand-alone session.
**WHAT TO BRING:**
- Weather-appropriate clothing and shoes
- Hydration, bug spray, seating cushion, optional journal
Note: The class will proceed in light rain and will be rescheduled in case of heavy rain or storm.
