Have you heard of the Japanese term Shinrin-yoku? Translated to English it means “Forest Bathing”. Simply put, it’s taking in the forest atmosphere. While there are many definitions, forest therapy is a type of ecotherapy that focuses on the therapeutic and holistic benefits of being among the trees.
Join your certified guide, Sara Melvin, in a Guided Forest Therapy Walk through our beautiful campus trails. You will partake in a slow-paced, mindful walk experience that opens the senses through a series of nature-connected invitations.
