Forest Bathing

Sippican Land Trust will host Forest Bathing with Forest Therapy Guide Diane Pienta on Saturday, January 3, at 10:00 am at the Osprey Marsh, Point Road in Marion.

Inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin Yoku to mitigate stress of modern-day life, this guided experience offers the opportunity to interact with Nature in a way that invites a deeper connection with the land and ourselves.

“Forest Therapy broadly means taking in, in all of one’s senses, Nature’s atmosphere. Not simply a walk in the woods, it is the conscious and contemplative practice of being immersed in the sights, sound, smells and space of the forest. Of being in a deep relationship with the Earth Herself.”

Diane is a certified Forest Therapy guide and is passionate about connecting people and the land. She has guided numerous walks for private groups as well as larger institutions.

The event is limited to 10 participants. To register or for more information, visit our website: Sippicanlandstrust.org.
