SLOWING DOWN WITH NATURE: FOREST BATHING IN TONOGAYATO GARDEN
Friday, May 24, 2024 9am-1pm
Shinrin Yoku is Japanese forest bathing, the practice of slowing down mindfully while immersing in nature.
Slowing ourselves is a challenge in this fast-paced world yet essential for restoring and replenishing our bodies and minds. This is a special invitation to come slow yourself in the beautiful gardens of Tonogayato in Kokobunji (Western Tokyo on the Chuo Line) where Michelle will guide an immersive Shinrin yoku session through the use of sensory awareness invitations that can cultivate presence and mindfulness. No experience necessary, simply an open mind and a curiosity. Limited to 5 participants. $15USD per person.
This two hour session will conclude with a group lunch at the walkable & nearby Cafe Slow, a healthy vegetarian and vegan restaurant focused on slow living and sustainability in food. The price of lunch is not included in the session fee.
