Forest Therapy Walk – The AMAL Wellness Team and Friends Walk

February 19, 2023 @ 10:00 am

We are excited to officially add Forest Therapy to the many programs and services being offered at the Wellness Centre and we are very eager to introduce you to this practice.

 

This is an open invitation to come on a Forest Therapy Walk. We welcome you to experience all the nourishment and support that the forest offers, while learning what forest therapy is, so you can get idea of who you feel could also benefit from this gentle healing practice (please see attached flyer).

 

Winter walks are especially magical as Mother Nature offers breath taking unique beauty. Bathe in your senses while you watch the sunshine down on the sparkling snow, listening to the trees cracking as they move and shift in the wind, and the feeling of the snow crunching under your feet as you walk along the trails is an incredible experience. It creates the opportunity for one to drop into their parasympathetic nervous system and settle into a relaxed state, allowing one to deepen connect to self, each other, and the more than human world.

 

The AMAL Wellness Centre team and friends walk will take place on Sunday February 19th, from 10am-1pm on Gallows Path Trail in Torbay – we encourage you to bring a colleague or friend. To help you all stay warm and cozy while out in the forest there will be blankets, small seats, hand warmers, a fire, and hot tea steeped from foraged plants.

If you would like to join us in the forest, please email to RSVP by Friday February 17th and we will happily add your name(s) to the list. 😊
