Slow down. Look up. Come home to yourself.
How often do you give yourself permission to simply be?
Just to notice.
When was the last time you spent two hours without checking a notification, answering a question, or thinking about what comes next?
Many women spend their days moving from screen to screen, task to task, caring for everyone except themselves.
This afternoon in the forest offers something different.
A chance to slow your pace, soften your attention, and reconnect with the natural world, and yourself.
Guided by an internationally trained energy healer and environmental scientist, Heather of The Forest and co-hosted by Amber of Grand Adventures, this small-group experience invites you to slow down and engage your senses through a series of guided invitations, mindful observation, reflection, and connection.
Guided and nature-immersed meditation.
No hiking experience required.
No special equipment needed.
Just curiosity, presence, and a willingness to spend time in the forest.
It involves intentionally immersing yourself in the atmosphere of the forest through your senses.
This is not a fitness activity or a nature hike.
Instead, you'll be invited to move slowly, observe deeply, and experience the forest in a new way.
Throughout the afternoon, we'll explore a series of guided practices designed to help you:
• Slow down and become present
• Connect with nature through your senses
• Reduce screen fatigue
• Cultivate curiosity and wonder
• Share meaningful conversation and reflection
• Spend restorative time outdoors

• Want to spend more time outdoors
• Crave meaningful connection and conversation
• Are curious about forest bathing and nature-based wellbeing
• Want to experience adventure in a gentler way
Sometimes adventure begins by paying attention.
By stepping outside. With noticing birdsong you would normally walk past. With feeling the texture of cedar bark beneath your fingertips.
By reconnecting with the natural world that exists just beyond our doorsteps.
This experience is an invitation to do exactly that.
This experience was created for those who are craving a slower, more intentional way to reconnect with nature, with community, and with themselves.
