Woodland Wondering Forest bathing workshop part one

This is the first in a series of three daytime forest bathing 'woodland wondering' meditation workshops, set in the heart of the East Sussex countryside.

(Come along to all three of the upcoming workshops or just drop in to whichever session you please - it's up to you.)

You will be guided through an experiential exploration amongst the trees as a form of woodland meditation. 

The event incorporates the Shinrin Yoku techniques of Forest Bathing or ‘taking in the forest atmosphere’, learning a simple ritual and drawing on aspects of Asklepian dreaming, all to deepen your experience of wellbeing in the land and place.

Bring appropriate clothing whatever the weather, plus refreshments.



• 12 participants maximum
• £10 per person
• Strictly bookings only
• Location is within 30 minutes of Hastings and will be provided after you book.

All forest bathing workshops will be followed in the evening by an optional screening of a film at the Electric Palace that is set within woods. After each film will be conversation with Rebecca E Marshall and the workshop leaders.

The evening screening connected with this first Woodland Workshop is Picnic at Hanging Rock.
