Nature as Medicine

  • Riverbound Farm Sanctuary 1881 Cheshire Street Cheshire, CT, 06410 United States (map)

Come explore the natural beauty of the grounds and forests of Riverbound Farm as you rediscover the many dimensions of Nature as a Healing Force.

Through a variety of mindful practices, we’ll learn Rewilding skills, such as forest bathing, sit-spots, and Qi Gong.

We’ll share our experiences of reconnecting with the natural world via generous listening and optional reflective journaling.

This 2-hour class will be experiential and mostly outdoors. Space is limited. Registration required. Please email Anne McNulty at annesmturtle@gmail.com.
