SUMMARY:Shinrin-Yoku
DESCRIPTION:Step into the healing power of nature with a guided Shinrin Yoku session at the Arboretum in Guelph. Also known as “forest bathing\,” Shinrin Yoku is a gentle\, meditative practice that originated in Japan\, inviting you to slow down\, awaken your senses\, and deepen your connection to the natural world. Over the course of approximately three hours\, you’ll be guided through a series of mindful invitations to engage with the forest atmosphere in a way that promotes relaxation\, clarity\, and well-being. Whether you’re new to the practice or returning for a deeper experience\, this immersive journey offers a meaningful way to unwind and reconnect\, with nature and with yourself. \nD’Arcy Meloche is a Registered Horticultural Therapist and certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guide with over 25 years of experience helping individuals connect with nature for health and healing. Based in Guelph\, Ontario\, D’Arcy works as a Horticultural Therapist at Homewood Health Centre\, where he supports therapeutic recovery through plant-based and outdoor programs. Eight years ago\, he expanded his practice by earning qualifications in Nature and Forest Therapy\, blending his deep horticultural knowledge with evidence-based techniques that invite restorative experiences in natural settings. His approach is grounded\, compassionate\, and rooted in decades of hands-on work with both plants and people. \nFee: $65 (plus HST) per person\, per session if you register by the early bird deadline 8 days prior to the workshop (ie. May 21 / July 2 / September 18). After the early bird deadline the fee is $75 plus HST. Please note that each of the three dates are an individual workshop; they are not a series.
