"We are not grateful because we are happy. We are happy because we are grateful."

Nature offers us infinite opportunities to be grateful. The day after Thanksgiving, join this mindful experience to slow down and connect with nature in a meaningful and memorable way. With a unique and relaxing approach rooted in shinrin-yoku (translated literally as "forest bathing"), this immersive practice taps into all your senses—your 5 senses as well as your intuition, imagination, and more. You will be offered prompts, or "invitations", to guide your experience and can expect a combination of sitting, walking, and meandering over short distances on hilly terrain.

Grateful Forest is offered in partnership with Amanda Kenyon, Nature Therapy & Meditation Guide. Past participants of Amanda's immersions have called the experience "peaceful, gentle, and joyful", "magical and transformative", and "profoundly rejuvenating.". Join us for a special opportunity this holiday season to fully explore all that we have to be thankful for!

Suitable for adults and youth able to participate in seated meditation.

Suggested contribution is $5 to $45. Please contribute within your means. Advance registration is required and space is limited. Please register early to ensure your spot.
