Forest Bathing will help you:

🌳 Cultivate a sense of presence, connection, and ease.

Rain, rain come again, make the garden green again!

Rain is in the forecast all week this week, and with that in mind we’re doing a special “rainy week” promotion.

Come in any day this week (12/14-12/21) and receive a third off admission by giving the code “Petrichor” at the entrance.

Side note: Petrichor means the scent of rain on dry earth. The smell comes from oils from certain plants that are then absorbed by clay and soils which get released into the air when rain first starts to fall.

We look forward to seeing you this week!
