Join us in our private woodlands at Rushcliffe Country Park for an afternoon of nourishing summertime Forest Bathing and spring nature identification.
What is Forest Bathing?
Forest Bathing, or ‘shinrin yoku’ in Japanese, is the wonderfully 
restorative, mindfulness-based
 practice of immersing oneself in the forest, woodland or any green space. Whether you practise alone, or guided by a trained facilitator as this session will be, you will gently use your senses to 
connect to the natural world
 around you. Many studies have shown forest bathing to have a profoundly positive impact on our physical, emotional and mental wellbeing. When practised in a group, it can also provide a lovely, easeful way to not only connect to nature and to ourselves, but to the other people around us.
What is an ID walk?
During our ID walk, I will be guiding and informing you in how to confidently identify a range of interesting species in the woodlands and around the park. During late spring, we can expect to find many interesting flowers in the woodland, as well as lots of leafy plants including many edible ones (note: we will not be eating anything we find on this walk). All the trees should have come into leaf by this point, and many will be producing flowers (and even some fruits). We may also identify other kingdoms of life including: mushrooms, birds, mammals, insects or byrophytes. However, what we find will depend on the weather and will focus on whatever is most relevent and interesting.
The event will be guided by Poppy, a qualified 
Forest Therapy Practitioner
. Poppy has also completed various other CPD trainings in wildlife idenitifcation, and is an all-round wildlife enthusiast. Additional information will be sent out to all attendees
