SUMMARY:Forest Bathing Walk
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy an embodied awareness walk through the beautiful garden spaces at Reiman Gardens!\n\nExplore your senses with a Forest Bathing Walk every season, with activities unique to each one.\nForest therapy, inspired by Shinrin-yoku, the Japanese philosophy of “forest bathing,” boosts immunity, lowers blood pressure and stress hormones, prevents and relieves stress and anxiety, and increases cognitive functioning.\nBrandy Case Haub, Certified Forest Therapy Guide and owner of Intertwined: Nature + Forest Therapy, will lead participants of all abilities on a slow, meditative walk where less than a ½ mile is covered. Brandy will use techniques to support participants in entering a state of embodied awareness, moving through a series of “invitations” to support tuning into the senses, allowing participants to move into a liminal space, and experience resulting wellness benefits.\n\nUpcoming Dates\n\nTuesday, October 20, 5:00 – 7:00 PM\n\n**Appropriate for ages 16+\n*All participants must complete a liability waiver to attend:* View Wellness Program Liability Waiver (1).pdf\nBlank forms are also available at the front desk on arrival.\n\nInstructor Bio\nBrandy received her training and certification through the Association of Nature + Forest Therapy and has been guiding nature therapy experiences in central Iowa since 2019. Brandy’s passion is bringing nature into culture by supporting individuals in rediscovering the restorative and curative effects of time spent in the natural world.\nBrandy was deeply honored to travel to Japan in the fall of 2023 to experience Shinrin-yoku in the forests where the practice originated 40 years ago! Intertwined serves groups, individuals and organizations in central Iowa offering guided forest bathing experiences.\n \nhttps://fareharbor.com/embeds/book/reimangardens/items/556610/calendar/2026/10/?flow=1082679&full-items=yes\n
