Sometimes the most magical moments in nature are the simplest ones. Sunlight filtering through snow-covered branches, each flake catching the light like a tiny star. Winter’s forest holds a different kind of beauty—quieter, softer, but no less breathtaking.

When we pause to truly see these details, we reconnect with the wonder that’s always been there, waiting for us to notice. The forest in winter invites us to slow our pace, to breathe deeply, and to find beauty in the stillness. Each sparkling surface reminds us that even in the coldest season, there’s light to be found.

This is the gift of slowing down in nature—discovering that magic isn’t something we have to chase. It’s already here, shimmering all around us.

Ring in 2026 with a First Day Hike! 🥾✨

Want to start the new year on the right foot? Then the left? Getting outside for a frosty hike on January 1st is the perfect way to kickstart your year-long healthy nature habit.

As my hiking guide in Norway would say: “Be bold; try cold!” Don’t let winter weather keep you indoors. From lower stress and blood pressure to boosting your immune system, the evidence continues to grow about the health benefits of getting active outside, even in the cold. Let’s make 2026 your healthiest year yet!

Ready to hit the trails? Grab your friends and family, dress for the weather, stick to the trails, and leave nothing but footprints behind.

Share your adventure with us by tagging and .ca in your photos. We can’t wait to see you out there! 🌲

A couple of weeks ago, my forest bathing session with Wellspring Alberta at Carma House was unforgettable! 🌨️

A blizzard rolled in at the last minute, but our participants were undeterred - they were still keen to try the waterfall position outdoors, snow swirling around them. There’s something incredibly powerful about choosing to connect with nature even when (especially when) it’s wild and unpredictable.

Thank you to Wellspring Alberta for the partnership and to every brave soul who showed up and leaned into the experience. This is what resilience looks like! 💙❄️

🚨Rescheduled to December 27th

Join us for a special Winter Solstice Forest Bathing experience as we honor the shortest day and longest night of the year.

On December 20th, we’ll walk the frost-kissed Christmas Tree Trail at Edworthy Park, moving slowly through a landscape transformed by winter’s quietude.
This is a time to turn inward, to find warmth in stillness, and to witness the raw beauty of nature at rest.

Bundle up and bring your curiosity-the winter forest has its own medicine to offer

6 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS

SIT around a fire 🔥

There’s something ancient that happens when we gather around fire. Something that reaches back through millennia - the original gathering place, the first source of warmth and light, the center of every story ever told.

Fire slows us down. It asks us to sit. To watch. To be mesmerized by flames that are never the same twice.

Today, find your way to fire. A backyard fire pit with friends or family. A fireplace where you can settle in with a warm drink. Even a candle flame counts - that flicker of light carries the same medicine.

Sit with it. Watch how the flames move. Listen to the crackle and pop. Feel the warmth on your face. Notice how fire creates an instant circle - how everyone naturally turns toward it, how conversations soften, how time expands.

Fire is transformation. It takes what was and turns it into light, warmth, and ash. It reminds us that change isn’t something to fear - it’s something elemental and necessary.

Six days until Christmas. In the rush of final preparations, give yourself the gift of firelight.

Where will you find fire today?

7 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS

SWING on something 🌙

Remember when swinging was just... what you did? When you didn’t need a reason to pump your legs and feel the wind rush past your face?

Somewhere along the way to adulthood, we decided swinging was frivolous. Childish. Not productive enough for our to-do lists.

But here’s the truth: swinging is medicine for the soul.

Today, find something to swing on. A playground swing (yes, even as an adult - the kids won’t mind, and if there are no kids around, even better). A tree swing. A porch swing. Even swaying in a hammock.

Feel the rhythm. The back and forth. The brief moment of weightlessness at the peak. The way your stomach drops just a little on the way down. The simple joy of movement that serves no purpose except to make you feel alive.

Swinging reconnects us with play, with momentum, with the pure present-moment awareness that comes from being in motion. It’s impossible to worry about your Christmas list when you’re focused on not dragging your feet.

One week until Christmas. Give yourself permission to play.

When’s the last time you swung on something?

Today’s Advent with Nature: Notice two things you SMELL

Winter has a scent all its own - you just have to slow down enough to catch it.

The sharp, clean smell of cold air. Pine and spruce. Woodsmoke drifting from a chimney. That particular scent of snow (yes, snow has a smell). Frozen earth. Evergreen resin on your fingers after touching a branch.

Smell is our most memory-linked sense. What you notice today might become part of how you remember this December.

What scents are in your winter air?

Today’s Advent with Nature: Notice four things you HEAR

Step outside and close your eyes for a moment. What does winter sound like?

Maybe it’s the chickadee calling from bare branches. Wind moving through evergreens. The distant hum of the city. Your own footsteps. The particular silence that comes with snow-covered ground.

Winter has its own soundtrack - quieter than other seasons, but no less alive.

What are you hearing today?

Today’s Advent with Nature: Notice five things you SEE

Step outside and let your eyes really land on five things. Not a quick glance - actually see them.

The way snow clings to evergreen branches. Morning light catching ice crystals. Tracks left by a bird or squirrel. The texture of tree bark against white snow. Shadows stretching across the landscape.

This simple practice pulls you out of your head and into the present moment. Into winter’s quiet beauty.

What are you noticing today?

🍂 Song for Autumn 🍂

Mary Oliver invites us to notice the quiet transitions happening all around us - the way autumn whispers its goodbyes and prepares the earth for winter’s embrace.

This poem reminds us that nature is always speaking if we slow down enough to listen. The trees preparing for rest, the goldenrod fading, the fox leaving blue shadows across the snow - each detail a verse in the endless song of seasonal change.

When was the last time you truly noticed these small transformations?

This is the heart of forest bathing - not just walking through nature, but truly being WITH it. Feeling the leaves beneath your feet. Touching the earth. Watching the trees settle into their winter dreams.

As we move deeper into the season, we invite you to step outside and listen to autumn’s song in your own neighborhood. What is the forest telling you today?

I love watching all the different animals in nature — each one offering a lesson in presence and wonder.

Wildlife sightings always feel like nature’s way of inviting us to slow down and reconnect.

The diversity of animals in nature is a beautiful reminder that we’re part of something bigger.
