Forest Bathing/Shinrin Yoku Walk

Enjoy slow time in the beauty of autumn in mixed forest, meadow, aspen and evergreen on a hidden ridge in magnificent Mueller. Quiet the busy mind, open the senses and deepen our relationship with the natural world, ourselves and for many,with the Creator. Perhaps we'll create an ephemeral art gift for mother earth? We'll close with forest tea.   1+ mile.
