Natural Mindfulness, Nature Connection

Experience the calming and energising effects of spending time in a woodland. We will walk, gently stretch, explore mindfulness practices and breath techniques as well as having fun!
 
Forest Bathing comes from the Japanese Shinrin-Yoku which translate as ‘taking in the forest through our senses’. It is not a passive activity but an active engagement connecting or re-connecting with nature.
 
Katy is a ‘Woodlander’, qualified yoga teacher with 20 years experience, Shinrin-Yoku practitioner and Natural Mindfulness guide. Katy owns and manages a small woodland in the Taw valley with her husband and is director of Courage Copse Creatives CIC.


Please bring with you:
  • Your booking reference number
  • Drink and light snack if required. Tea and coffee will be available in the classroom afterwards.
  • The workshop will take place outside in the woodland. Please wear clothes and footwear suitable for the weather on the day. We suggest wearing layers - be prepared for ALL weather conditions - and footwear appropriate for walking in the woodland.
All materials and equipment provided. Tea and coffee included

Tutor: Katy Lee / Copse Creatives
