SUMMARY:New England  Nature & Forest Therapy - Acton Arboretum\, Acton\, MA
DESCRIPTION:1033 Forest Bathing – Shinrin Yoku\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPeel the layers of stress away and support healing by experiencing the medicine of the forest on this half-day nature connection retreat\nwith Certified Forest Therapy Guide\, Nadine Mazzola. Shinrin Yoku is a term that means taking in the forest atmosphere or forest\nbathing. It is unlike any nature walk you have experienced before. We focus on our senses to develop an immediate connection with\nthe forest. This is a very relaxed\, slow\, and mindful way of walking that has many proven health benefits. It’s fun\, easy and relaxing! We’ll\ndo a series of activities to engage our senses\, hone intuition and connect with the natural world around us. Over time we have started to\nlose our connection with nature as more technology creeps into our lives. Wash away some of the technology induced stress of modern life and reconnect to nature.\nThe walk will still be on if it’s raining\, unless it is a really big downpour or violent storm. If it is raining it’s important to have a waterproof shell including pants\, and many people bring umbrellas also. Rain often enhances sensory experience and makes for some of our most memorable walks.\nMaterials Needed: Please bring a snack or light lunch and water bottle\, or if the day is cold you might want to consider bringing a thermos with a hot drink. Wear comfortable clothing and good shoes for walking on easy trails & sunscreen/hat. If the weather is cool you should also dress to stay warm! I suggest you bring one more layer than you think you will need. We will be moving at a leisurely pace and in the shade so temperatures may be cooler than you expect.\nMIN/MAX: 3/12 \nThis program was incorrectly priced when published in print on 2/17/16 for $30. This fee has been corrected and effective as of 2./18/16 to the correct cost of $39.

SUMMARY:Honor Yoga Pennington - Restorative & Reiki: Summer Solstice with Carolyn Chaiko
DESCRIPTION:The Solstice is a universal celebration of light. With this brightness of energy we feel the opening of summer energy. As with all transitions this time is meant to open us further to remembering that all is well and we are loved and guided. During this restorative workshop we will focus on restorative postures that will encourage the release of deeply held tension and open our hearts to the brightness of the coming Solstice. \nRestorative yoga is a deeply nourishing practice. As a therapeutic style of yoga\, restore uses props such as bolsters\, blankets\, blocks\, sandbags and eye pillow to safely support the body in restful postures. By holding poses longer\, we are able to access deeper levels of self\, enhanced with the benefit of hands on Reiki energy. \nMoving into summer’s warm energy\, during this practice enjoy a guided meditation reflecting this season’s theme. And with our final savasana\, experience the benefits of Yoga Nidra or “yogic sleep”. \nInvestment:  $30 members take 10% off \noriginal event listing found here..\nhttps://www.evensi.us/restorative-amp-reiki-summer-solstice-with-carolyn-chaiko/176373692
