Sunday's, Feb 16-Mar 22, 2020
1:00-3:30pm
Burgoyne Bay Provincial Park
Salt Spring Island, BC
Self Investment $144 (for all 6 walks)
Join ANFT Certified Forest Therapy Guide Kelly Kiss in a 6 week, "Walking with Women" series at beautiful Burgoyne Bay provincial park on Salt Spring Island. Meeting every Sunday for 6 weeks, we will bring together the healing benefits of the forest, and the supportive community of women, to deepen our connection with ourselves, our health, community and nature. Kelly invites you take time away from your busy schedules of family and work, for self care and reflection.
During each walk you will be given different invitations to help you to slow down, and perhaps connect with nature and yourself in a way you have not experienced before. You will also be given time to journal for self reflection and healing.
If you struggle with anxiety or depression, would like more energy, better health, or creative inspiration in your life, the regular practice of forest therapy can support you.
Perhaps come to this series with an intention of what you would like to receive, or just be open to being given whatever the forest and nature has to offer you.
Each walk is 2.5 hours and includes a series of different invitations to open-up your senses and become deeply immersed in your surroundings. We will conclude our walks with a tea ceremony, which features tea made with local plants, and healthy snacks as well as time for journalling and reflection.
We will meet on the road near the old barn at Burgoyne Bay Provincial Park on Salt Spring Island.

For all Forest Therapy walks, please dress for the weather. In the summer months a hat and sunscreen is recommended, as well as a light jacket as the forested areas can still be cool even in warm weather. Please also wear appropriate foot wear, as the trails where we are walking my be uneven in some areas. In the colder months gloves, hats, scarves, rain wear and warm footwear, and dressing in layers, are all highly recommended for your comfort. You may also want a water bottle and a small mat or towel to sit on.
