Following Nature's Lead
What people are saying...
'Liz was a great guide, really put the group at ease
and helped us to appreciate the powerful
benefits of nature’
Pete, Forest Bathing Participant
“What a lovely way to spend a Sunday morning. I didn’t have much of an idea of what to expect.
Liz took time to explain the practice and its background before staring her invitations.
I thoroughly enjoyed and got a lot from slowing down to be present in the setting. Liz’s encouragement to engage my senses was an effective prompt to see, hear, feel, smell and taste the forest.
The group was an ideal size and Liz guided us in informative and encouraging way.
Many thanks to Liz, my group and the forest and its inhabitants. I will definitely pursue forest bathing.”

'Forest bathing with Liz was a perfect way to unwind and shift my mood and outlook on life in a powerful and healing way.
I love the outdoors and have become so disconnected to it.
This brought me right back and offered me some hope to hold onto that nature can be in my life again and offer me even more than before.'

Give yourself a gift, and join her.’

'I just wanted to say a big 'thank you' for today's forest bathing experience. I'm so glad that I was finally able to join you and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I'm a keen walker and thought that I was quite observant of nature, but my time with you in Denbers Wood has shown me just how much I have been missing.
It was a wonderful experience, incredibly relaxing and the sense of well-being has stayed with me.'

Deborah Marie, Forest Bathing Participant
'I joined Liz's forest bath in early September, not sure what to expect but knowing I needed to find a way of spending more time outside in nature.
Liz has a beautifully structured session that guides you to use your senses and really experience the forest around you. I felt so safe that I was able to really go within and drop into a deeply relaxed state which was blissful, as I am usually cramming so much into the day.
The result a deeply calm and relaxed sense of wellbeing which lasted for the whole weekend. I highly recommend.’
