What we'll do
A workshop to experience for ourselves how co-creating with nature liberates our curiosity. Once we enter the Forest Bathing state - calm, open and alert - creative activities act as a portal to curiosity and free thinking. You will take part in some practical Forest Bathing Invitations that help us enter that state, and which can be adapted to any setting or audience. You’ll come away with an understanding of how creativity reduces stress, benefits our mental health and boosts brain function. There will be opportunities for experiential, reflective and interactive learning as together we slow down, notice our own response to the activity, and discover the diversity of possible responses within the group. “Not only do I have a new skillset and way of looking at the world, but I have increased my creativity through building stronger connections to nature. I now feel more positive about life in general and excited at the journey ahead of me - it has only just started!” Adult learner whose curiosity was sparked by taking part in these activities.

About your mentors
Jan Cafearo
Forest Bathing guide and champion for Nature
I'm passionate about human and planetary health, and believe they are inextricably intertwined. I've brought together my two areas of work as a holistic physical therapist, and Forest Bathing guide, by creating Nature Connection for Wellbeing courses - for the good of people, our society, and the planet. When not working I'm usually found in my veggie garden, walking, cooking, and making willow baskets.
Nic Harding
Project's Officer at FSA

Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
