Forest Bathing
Soak up the peace and tranquillity on a sensory journey through Claremont Landscape Garden to calm the mind and feed your soul.
- Booking essential
Forest bathing is often misunderstood—it doesn’t involve immersing yourself in water! Originating in Japan in the 1980s, forest bathing, or ‘shinrin-yoku’, was developed following scientific studies to help reduce stress. While many cultures have long understood the healing power of nature, forest bathing elevates this connection through mindfulness and sensory exploration. It encourages slowing down and fully immersing yourself in the natural world, providing an uplift in mood and general wellbeing.
The two and a half hour session will start pre-opening, giving participants access to the peace and quiet of the garden, ahead of our daily visitors.
Sessions in the first half of 2025 are on the following dates:
Friday 7 March
Friday 4 April
Friday 9 May
Friday 6 June
