New Year's Eve Forest Bathing: A Restorative Journey with Nature
Celebrate New Year’s Eve in a truly meaningful way with a magical afternoon of forest bathing at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens. With mindfulness and nature connection, honor the past year and welcome the year to come. Step away from the hustle and bustle to slow down, breathe deeply, and reflect and reconnect with nature, yourself, and community. Reflect on your journey through 2024 and rekindle your inner radiance and resilience for 2025 with nature. All adults welcome. Registration required at https://bit.ly/nyeforest
Forest bathing, or nature therapy, is a restorative practice of immersing yourself in the natural world through sensory experiences that engage your whole self. Guided by Ilana Rubin – Kindred Nature’s founder and a certified forest bathing guide – this experience offers a series of gentle activities to help you tune into the present, reawaken your senses, spark curiosity, reduce stress, and feel at peace.
Through mindful walking, guided meditation, nature connection invitations, and tea, you can enjoy benefits such as lower stress, increased mental clarity, and greater creativity. Tune in to yourself and the beauty of the winter garden – a calming setting to release what no longer serves you and to set and embrace intentions for the new year. This program combines individual and shared experiences, encouraging a sense of belonging with oneself, nature, and community.
All adults are welcome. No experience needed. Just bring your open heart and curiosity! Warm guidance, prompts for mindful reflection, beautiful scenery, hand warmers, and local tea provided. The program may include up to a mile of slow walking along paved or unpaved, flat or sloped terrain. Registration required.
