Nordic Journey: Nature and Forest Therapy Walk with Nordic Flavors
***Event postponed until further notice***
Location:
Holly Hill Farm, Cohasset, MA
Are you curious about getting a sense of the Nordic lifestyle? Have you heard about “Forest Bathing” and want to know how you can experience nature using all your senses? Live Nordic, Blue Stone Journeys and Mettä Nordic are teaming up to bring you an afternoon outdoors combining the practice of nature and forest therapy with the flavors of a Nordic palette.
One of the fundamental parts of Living Nordic is spending a great deal of time outdoors connecting with nature. In the North, where winters are long and summers short, people have learnt to embrace each season. Likewise, Nordic people share a unique connection with forest. Throughout history, forests have offered shelter, food and medicine. Berry and mushroom picking are common Nordic cultural traditions that are enjoyed together as a family or with friends.
Nature and Forest Therapy offers the opportunity to slow down the pace, tune in to all one’s senses connecting with nature, self and others in the group. The health benefits of spending time in nature have been well documented and include, to name a few: reducing stress levels, lowering blood pressure and heart rate while building the immune system.
Join Henna Capone, founder of Live Nordic, and certified nature and forest therapy guide, Kirsten Snow, for a gentle walk in nature, experiencing the grounding elements of nature. We’ll walk about one mile with stops along the way, and you’ll have time to spend together in the group as well as on your own.
