Certified Guide: Dr. Sean Graham, DC
Dr. Sean Graham, DC is a certified forest bathing guide with extensive experience in holistic health and wellness. His approach and passion for nature make every session enriching and transformative.
Forest Bathing, also known as Shinrin-yoku, is a Japanese practice that involves immersing oneself in the forest atmosphere. Unlike hiking or outdoor exercise, forest bathing is about slowing down and mindfully connecting with nature using all your senses.
Through guided sessions with trained practitioners, these sessions may include mindfulness exercises, sensory awareness activities, and meditative practices designed to deepen the therapeutic connection with nature and promote well-being. Join Sean to explore the healing power of the forest in a guided, supportive environment.
