A forest bathing walk is the Japanese-inspired health and wellness practice of Shinrin Yoku. Forest bathing combines embodiment and mindfulness experiences in order to explore the question of what it means to be alive and in relationship with nature. Origin Forest Bathing invites participants on a journey of self-discovery, that seeks to heal the separation between the stories that we tell ourselves about who we are and who we are naturally. We have always been part of nature and can go back for healing anytime. Unlike a therapist nature knows what each person needs without judgement or expectation. We live in a tamed world that has lost this connection with the more-than-human world. This practice is the collaboration of many wisdom paths, Jung psychology, Taoist and Zen philosophy, modern research, and ancestral knowledge. Origin Forest bathing is a heart opening practice of finding awe in the everyday and trusting that we are all connected in life. Being in the here and now, gets us out of our heads and into our hearts.

We're co-hosting with two great organizations. Note that we will start at Henry's Books with Madison Shoop-Ferguson, owner of Origin Forest Bathing. Then, we will head to The Matthews for Tia Erin's Cyanotype activity. After that creative process, we will return to Henry's Books for Joyce Jefferson's Storytelling and to wrap up our time with open creative flow space. This is one of 2 events we are hosting for our SD communities as part of a Rapid Response grant award through Change Network. We have hosted many conversations to connect with a folks from many sectors to learn what our communities want and this is it!
