Join us for a relaxing and restorative morning of Qigong and the nature connection practice of Forest Bathing. You will be guided to gently move and awaken your body and senses, opening up to the vibrant energy of Spring in the beautiful Nature Reserve at Mere Sands. 

• Nicky from Wuji Wellbeing will lead you through Qigong; a mindful movement practice among the trees. 

• Claire from Journeys in Nature will then guide you through the woods, offering suggestions of ways to more deeply connect to the nature around you through your senses. This is based on the practice of Forest Bathing which encourages you to slow down, quieten the mind and relax through immersing yourself in nature (no swimming involved!)
