SUMMARY:Nourishing Ourselves Through Nature: Orchids and Bog Walking in an Outdoor Playground
DESCRIPTION:This naturalist wellness class will combine observing nature with mindfulness\, creating a practice that incorporates a heightened sense of awareness\, both in ourselves and the environment around us. Labeling or identifying species is not the only focus\, but instead\, the intention is also to slow down and notice how to use nature\, including birds\, butterflies\, trees\, flowers\, and more as our guide. This style of observation invites self reflection and exploration\, reciprocity\, and an acknowledgment of our physical and emotional responses while we engage with the outdoors. \nJoin this class at Jam Pond and explore a bog!\nMore details: This program is designed for ages 18 and up. Space is limited. Online pre-registration is required.

SUMMARY:Forest Therapy Walk at Baltimore Woods
DESCRIPTION:Experience nature in a unique way on a guided Forest Therapy Walk throughout Baltimore Woods! Forest Therapy\, also known as “forest bathing\,” stems from a Japanese practice known as Shinrin Yoku. Led by June Leo-Randazzo\, a Certified ANFT Forest Therapy Guide\, this program invites participants to immerse themselves in nature and open their senses to the surroundings of the forest. \n\n\nExtensive scientific research has found forest therapy walks to have numerous physical health benefits including activation of the ‘rest and restore’ parasympathetic nervous system\, decreases to anxiety and depression\, improving creativity\, and much more. Your stress will peel away as your nervous system relaxes and you simply experience the medicine of the forest. \nJune will provide a series of relaxing invitations to engage all your senses\, release your mind chatter\, and deepen connections to nature\, allowing you to connect with yourself and others through nature in new ways. You will have opportunities throughout for both individual reflection and to come together as a group to listen and share what we are noticing. The walk ends with a tea ceremony with wildcrafted tea foraged from the local area and snacks. \nThis program is for adults.\nCost: $30 \n\nRegister to experience a Forest Therapy Walk at Baltimore Woods!\nMore details: Space is limited. Pre-registration is required. This is an experience that allows you to relax through a slow and mindful walk with pauses at times. It covers less than a mile on mainly flat trails with some unevenness lasting 2.5-3 hrs.\, depending on the size of the group.  \n\n\nYou will be notified by email 2 days prior on the exact location at Baltimore Woods to meet for the walk. Come prepared for the weather. You may want to bring a water bottle to keep hydrated. Be sure to bring rain gear or an umbrella if rain is forecasted. If heavy rain/winds or lightning is forecasted\, the walk will be rescheduled and you will be notified by email the day prior.
