Forest bathing is a playful, slow and childlike exploration of the woodland surroundings with all our senses.

It is in our genetic makeup from literally millions of years spent in the forests of the world.
Forest Bathing is a clinically-proven therapy that lasts for days. It improves your body’s natural resistance to many stress-related illnesses through a slow reconnection with nature in our local woods using all your senses.

Your breathing will slow and deepen, your sense of hearing will become more acute, your brain will stop thinking of everyday list of “to do’s” and your natural surroundings will envelope you in its peace and serenity. You will be Home.

We all deserve a bit of peace and to slow down. There is no mysticism and “signs from above”. It’s ingrained in our DNA so it’s just about rediscovering the slow ways. Something I reckon we all yearn for.

A woman’s circle, some mens work and an embodiment practice walk into a festival…
There’s a place ~ beyond the small talk ~ beneath the surface ~ where I long to meet you…
~to explore and deepen our shared human experience through play and open hearted
communication.
~to foster community and connection.
~to move closer to the person who is authentically me, and allow space for you to do the same.

It’s a people party and you’re invited.

In this 90 minute workshop we’ll ground into our bodies and breath before exploring a series of playful
activities designed to foster deep connection. Cutting through the surface level chit chat, come home
to your heart and show up more authentically, more fully YOU.

Hosted by Joe Coyne & Jessamin Landamore Coyne

Step off the path and into the living apothecary.

Join Jules & Jon for a guided foraging walk exploring the wild foods and medicines growing all around us. Rooted in traditional herbal knowledge and practical, evidence-informed use, this immersive walk will reconnect you with the land, the seasons, and your own intuitive relationship with plants.

Earth Dance is a 90-minute ceremonial song and dance journey weaving together medicine music, guided and freeform movement, devotional song, prayer and collective remembrance.

This gathering invites us to return to the wisdom of the body and the power of moving and feeling together in community. We begin by grounding through meditation and prayer, and gradually moving into a guided movement journey that unfolds into freeform dance, before arriving into a space of collective grief tending and devotional song; a powerful reminder of our shared humanity. Earth Dance is a space to move, feel, pray and remember. A place where the dance floor becomes a living prayer, and where we sing and dance the great song of life itself.
