SUMMARY:Forest Bathing with Melanie Choukas-Bradley
DESCRIPTION:Join Melanie Choukas-Bradley\, author of “The Joy of Forest Bathing\,” “Wild Walking—A Guide to Forest Bathing Through the Seasons\,” “A Year in Rock Creek Park\,” and several other nature books\, for a forest bathing walk through the Tregaron Conservancy.

Forest bathing is a mindfulness practice akin to meditation\, yoga and tai chi that involves tuning in to the beauty and wonder of your natural surroundings with all of your senses. \n\n\n\nMelanie is a nature and forest therapy guide with certification from the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy Guides & Programs and she has participated in guided shinrin-yoku walks throughout Japan. She will guide you on a calming and rejuvenating walk through the Tregaron woodlands.
