Forest Bathing (also known as Shinrin-Yoku) broadly means taking in the forest atmosphere with all of one’s senses.    Not simply a walk in the woods; it is the conscious and contemplative  practice of being immersed in the sights\, sounds\, and smells of  the forest. During your walk\, Aimee Vandemark will guide you through  invitations to awaken your senses\, slow down\, be present\, and reconnect  with the nature and rhythm of your surroundings.
