Fall Forest Bathing in Fredericksburg

Forest Bathing is a journey filled with rich nature for a calming and peaceful experience. Spend some time amongst the trees and relish in the sensory flows of nature on this magical trip.

Group Experience

Grab your friends and family for a wild group experience at the Forest Gardens in Fredericksburg, VA. We all need to take the occasional break from our cell phones and other electronic devices and become one with nature outside every once in a while. Forest Bathing is a great opportunity to soak in the sun and surround yourself with natural life and peaceful scenery to ease your mind and relieve yourself of any built-up stress.

Exploration

As we get deeper into the fall season, it is even more important to take advantage of scenic opportunities like this, especially one where you are able to take in the complexity of a dense forest. On this exploration tour, you will join Darlene Rollins for a Natural Communion Forest Bathing walk through beautiful forests and grasslands. Stroll through the waters and flow with the Rappahannock River. Another benefit of this program is that it includes a brief tour of Forest Gardens. Before you all embark on the walk, all groups will take time to learn how to relax your minds and focus on your senses. This is done in order to set the relaxing tone as you enjoy the walk, stopping to observe and share, learning about native plants, and learning how to use nature to deeply relax into being.

Wander in Nature

Traverse the forest and learn to become more open and receptive to nature’s guidance and to her inner peace. Once you become more open you can learn how to follow the stream of life where ever it may lead you. We recommend a moderate fitness level in order to maximize enjoyment and comfort on hilly uneven terrain with overhanging branches and fallen debris. Be sure to wear long pants and good pair of shoes for hiking on uneven surfaces along with a water bottle. Have fun with Darlene Rollins, the owner of the Earthwalk Ways Retreat who will lead this weekly meditation in nature through the fall.
