Forest Bathing – What is it? Forest bathing also known as ‘Shinrin-yoku’ in Japan, which translates as ‘to bathe in ambience of the forest’. It is the art and science of how trees, plants, soil and their ecosystems vitally contribute to human health, relaxation, connection and happiness. Forest Bathing is great for our health!

Time: 9am to 11.30 am
The group walks together mindfully, about 1.5 km in 2.5 hours around Star Swamp tracks, starting and finishing at the Henderson Centre. A series of invitations are offered throughout the walk which allow participants to connect with nature using the senses around them. These walks will allow participants time to dabble in nature journaling or create some ephemeral art.
