What is a Remotely Guided Forest Bathing Walk? A remotely guided walk is an amazing experience for different bioregions, humans, and More-Than-Human communities of the Earth to speak to each other! As your guide, I will help you settle into embodied practice. Then, I will offer invitations to you to explore.
*A walk is not a hike. You will likely walk less than 1 mile and can fully participate without walking about if circumstances require. What you will need:
Location: Choose a place outdoors (weather and health permitting) where you would like to be guided. Maybe this is a favorite park, your backyard, a nearby body of water. If the weather is inhospitable or you would not feel safe alone on a trail be sure to acknowledge this. Be aware of any trail hazards in your bioregion such as poison ivy, uneven trails, etc. Important points: Let someone know where you plan to go and when you will return. A location with public restroom facilities is an asset.
Technology requirement: Smartphone devices with internet connection and video recommended for remotely guided walks. You may require additional power supply for smartphones during the session. If you are joining from home and using a laptop computer, be sure to have a timepiece with a timer that you can bring with you out into your yard so you know when to return to the group for sharing.
Materials: Tea or coffee or your favorite beverage and a snack to save for the end of the walk Tea Party. Water for hydration, sunscreen, bug spray, hat, comfortable shoes, possibly a camp chair to sit, Epipen if prescribed.
