What participants Are Saying

"The experience was unbelievably rich and deep.  I easily dropped deeply into presence and maintained that state throughout.  So life affirming.  The guide Kelly was so kind and steady and fully embodied the love and appreciation of
​nature and our connectedness." 


"Find the time! It is worth the investment to understand how you can benefit from listening and smelling the forest!"
​
"I think everyone would benefit to experience the calming effect of a
forest therapy walk."

I would like to acknowledge the land where I am living ~the unceded territory and ancestors of the Coast Salish Peoples of Salt Spring Island and surrounding areas who continue to use and steward the lands and waters of the Salish Sea. These include the traditional land of the local Hul'qumi'num Treaty Group (Cowichan, Halalt, Lyackson, Cowichan Lake, Penelakut), and Saanich First Nations
​(Tsartlip, Tseycum, and Tswaout).
