Forest Bathing in High Rock Park, Staten Island
October 5, 2019 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Event Navigation
Join the Natural Areas Conservancy for forest bathing: a low-intensity activity, based on the Japanese practice of shinrin-yoku. Forest bathing focuses on gently engaging mind, spirit, and body with the natural environment — empowering park visitors to deepen their connection with New York City’s parks and local environments. It’s the perfect opportunity to get outside, hug a tree (literally!), and show your love for the amazing natural areas that exist in our City.
