This woodland immersion is designed to help soothe an overstimulated mind and support nervous system regulation through slow, sensory connection with the natural world.

A chance to soften.
To breathe deeper.
To remember what calm feels like in your body.

Over 2.5 hours, you will be gently guided through a series of mindful, nature-based practices designed to help you slow down and support natural nervous system regulation.

Within the peaceful woodland setting of Hever Castle, you will be invited to engage your senses and connect with the natural world at a slower, more intentional pace. Simple guided practices may include gentle awareness of breath, sensory exploration, stillness, and time to simply notice what is present around you.

Together, these practices can help you:

• Ease feelings of stress, anxiety, or overwhelm
• Support release of mental fatigue and emotional exhaustion
• Reduce sensory overload and overstimulation
• Feel more grounded and present in your body
• Reconnect with calm, clarity, and inner spaciousness
• Experience rest without pressure or guilt
• Remember what it feels like to simply be

Places are limited as group sizes are kept small. The space at Hever is very flat and the distance covered is short because the focus is on slowing down and paying attention. This makes it suitable for all ages and fitness levels. No previous experience in mindfulness or forest bathing is required. All are welcome.

Please note the nearest toilets to the space are a 10 min walk away at the Golf Club. Otherwise, we go wild!

Please ensure you are wearing warm comfortable clothes.

• The name Forest Bathing is a translation of the Japanese term ‘Shinrin Yoku’ which literally means Forest Bath. the meaning of this is to bathe in the atmosphere of the Forest and does not refer to any physical kind of swimming or bathing.
• The Japanese began Forest bathing back in the 80s and today there are Forest Bathing Guides all over the world guiding people back into Nature to find peace, deep relaxation, connection and meaning. The practice has now been subject to a vast amount of research and has been scientifically proven to be an effective support for mental health illness and physical/emotional health and wellbeing too.
