Forest Bathing

Get your WILD ON.
Join us, along with Kathleen Aharoni, The Human Ecologist, for a day of Forest Bathing, where wild is the connected, grounded, sensual, alive, peace-filled norm of nature’s will. Our playground will be the sights, scents, colors, textures, and sounds of nature’s summer playground at The Little Calumet River Trail/Bailly Homestead in the Indian Dunes National Park.
During this nature bath, you stay fully clothed and you only get wet if it rains and you choose not to wear rain gear. (We supply lightweight rain ponchos.)

Winter is not a season. It is a celebration
We are excited to celebrate winter this year. Many of you have asked about our winter adventures. We will be offering our favorites including Snowshoeing, Cross Country Skiing and Snow Hiking with crampons.
We are also offering custom or private winter adventures. Please email Carlyn to set up a discovery planning call.
As always, we will do all the planning and provide daypacks to borrow and adventure packs to keep.
You will need to provide your own sports equipment. Here is a list of gear we love:
Snowshoes – Yukon Charlies are our favorite. However, there are many great options out there.
Cross Country Skiing – we recommend renting from REI as they have a great selection of rental equipment for any winter adventure. Find your local REI store.
U UZOPI ice cleats crampons. We use these all winter long be it on a hike or walking across an icy grocery store parking. They are easy to attach and help prevent falls and injuries.
Pricing: TBD depending on the adventure
