Embark on a relaxed, mindfulness based nature walk through the wild enchantment of a West Coast Temperate Rainforest. Mystical Rainforest Tours are a whole lot more than just a walk in the park. These guided nature walks are very experiential in nature, with structured activities grounded in principles of forest bathing and nature mysticism. Not only will you have an amazing nature walk, but you will also learn some simple and effective holistic wellness tools that you will be able to take home with you and apply in your everyday life.

• Participate in a guided visualization exercise, imaging that you are a tree & feeling grounded to the earth beneath you.
• Tune into the life force of a mystical rainforest while listening to the uplifting sounds of a Tibetan Singing Bowl.
• Stroll through some towering Douglas Firs and Western Red Cedars. Immerse yourself in in a mystical valley of moss and ferns.
• Explore the magnificent Heritage Grove, where you will experience some old growth Douglas Firs (500 to 650 years old).
• Mindfulness Made Easy – Walking Meditation, Grounding / Earthing

Discover Forest Bathing – Holistic Wellness inspired by Nature.  Forest bathing is essentially immersing yourself in the healing & revitalizing energies of nature. Seeing, Touching, Tasting, Smelling & Listening to the vibrant Presence & ecosystem that brings the rainforest to Life. You will learn some simple but very effective mindfulness based tools that will result in such things as improved mental clarity, feelings of gratitude & joy, a strengthened immune system, lowered blood pressure & stress levels, & increased energy & vitality. Rejuvenation for the mind, body & spirit!

Practice Nature Mysticism & come to the realization that you are part of something much greater than yourself. Awaken your sense or awareness of being immersed in the Oneness of Nature. When you align with the Awareness that resides deeply within the depths of Nature, you access the true source of lasting Peace and Contentment.  You experience how your sense of joy and fulfillment radically changes through the awakening of consciousness and the realization of who you truly are.
