Forest Bathing

  • Schiff Natural Lands Trust 339 Pleasant Valley Road Mendham Township, NJ, 07945 United States (map)

Please join us to experience Schiff in a new way! Forest Bathing is a well-being practice inspired by the Japanese tradition of Shinrin- Yoku. Slowing down in nature is combined with prompts, called invitations, to help participants use their senses to connect with the natural world. Research has shown that forest bathing can have numerous health benefits, lowering stress and improving cardiovascular and immune function. Join Elizabeth, a certified Forest Therapy Guide, dressed for the weather with sunscreen/ bug spray, comfortable shoes and water. The walk will last 2 hours at a leisurely pace over varied terrain. This program is ideal for adults and teens able to remain quiet and still for extended time. This is an all weather event with the exception of thunderstorm, extreme wind, ice or wind chill temperature warnings. In the event of a cancellation, advance registration will ensure you receive a weather cancellation notice within 24 hours of the program start time. Member fee is $25. Non- member fee is $30. Advance registration and payment is required 24 hours in advance. No dogs, please. Guests are asked to have face coverings on their person.
