As a certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guide with the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy (ANFT), I invite you to join me on a guided forest bathing walk. Together, we’ll slow down, engage all our senses, and deepen our connection with the natural world. These walks offer gentle invitations to relax, unwind, restore—physically, emotionally, spiritually

An accessible walk for those with limited mobility or who prefer sinking into the sights and scents of a Garden rather than stepping into a forest.
Thanks to the the City of Barrie.

Longing to slow down? Step into four days of deep nature connection and quiet, nourishing indulgence. Wake to a morning hamper with warm chocolate croissants at your cozy deluxe cabin, then drift into the restorative rhythm of guided Forest Bathing. Beneath starlit skies and among ancient granite and whispering pines, you’ll be gently invited into stillness, spaciousness, and a more grounded way of being.

Create a group of up to 12 participants and be guided for three hours according to your own schedule. A great way to celebrate special events and milestones!
Enjoy the benefits of a private one-to-one walk tailored to your time and place.
Join a community of others interested in exploring forest bathing on a scheduled walk.
Include the flexibility of shorter walks tailored for multiple groups and question-and-answer or information sessions on the documented health benefits of Forest Bathing.
While sheltering-in-place, through zoom, immerse yourself in a deepened connection to others, self, and if possible, the More than Human World, from the safety, comfort and privacy of your own home, balcony, backyard or favourite greenspace.

An accessible walk for those with limited mobility or who would like to sink into the sights and scents of a beautiful Garden rather than stepping into the Forest.
