Finding ways to connect more deeply with nature can offer us support in feeling at home within ourselves, and at home on this planet that we share with so many other beings.
By slowing down and being present in the natural world, we can discover ways to feel more joy and wonder.
Leader: Joan Vorderbruggen, author and certified Forest Therapy Guide, Bircheart Shinrin-Yoku.
Joan discovered forest bathing through her work as an architect and teacher researching the healing potential of human/nature connections. Having personally experienced transformative benefits from nature, she trained through the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy and became a certified forest therapy guide. Joan lives among the lakes, hills, forests, and prairies of West Central Minnesota, and gets outdoors daily no matter the weather.
