For these two hours, we'll take you exploring the beautiful Conham River Park, learning about the different plants overflowing in the hedgerows. We’ll be moving and foraging at dusk so bring your warm clothes and comfy things, we’ll be sharing ways to transition from the light of summer to the dark of autumn and winter and will finish our session with a fireside circle and nourishing snacks.
Through this curated blend of movement, meditation and knowledge sharing, we'll learn how to connect with ourselves and with these plants, reconnecting to our place in nature.
This is a chance to move your body in the forest, take time to nourish yourself and learn which healing plants are growing around us there!

6.15pm - 7.30pm - Guided walking, movement and meditation in surrounding trees and fields

There'll be pleny of chances to have extra breaks and space if you need, you are invited to join as much as you would like, make notes and take photos.
