A Joyful Spring Gathering: Forest Bathing & Aromatherapy at Dr. Neil's Garden 🌱🌻✨

Saturday 25th April 10:30-15:00

We're celebrating the magic of the spring with a deeply immersive experience that harmoniously blends the revitalising practice of Forest Bathing with the art of aromatherapy. 🌺✨

A day in one of Edinburgh's most beloved hidden gardens - created in 1963 by two local GPs who simply wanted people to slow down and experience the quiet power of nature and it's ability to restore us.🌻🌱

We're bringing together two practices that sit naturally alongside each other: forest bathing and aromatherapy. A chance to settle into spring, connect with others, and leave with something made by your own hands.

Forest Bathing Led by Rosie (forest bathing guide & psychotherapist), we'll spend two hours moving gently through the spring landscape of Dr. Neil's Garden - slowing down, noticing, soaking it in. Spring is a time of light and growth, and this practice creates space to feel that. We'll end with a tea ceremony outdoors, taking time to reflect before moving inside. Please dress for all weathers.🌱✨

Aromatherapy In Thomson's Tower - a richly historical octagonal building on the banks of Duddingston Loch , Gill will guide you through creating your own 10ml therapeutic perfume, inspired by the scents of spring. Essential oils are the living essence of plants and trees and each one carefully chosen for its therapeutic properties as much as its scent. A natural continuation of the morning you've just had outdoors, and something to carry the feeling home with you. 😊🌺🙏🏼

A light lunch is provided before the workshop, with space to connect and settle.

There are so many gifts from guiding my forest bathing walks. I know I will feel calmer, more connected and I'll help other thoughtful people do the same 😌🌱✨.

One gift that I didn't expect, was for the lovely to write a poem inspired by the walk in her new collection Paper weights!

Jemma came along to one of my forest bathing taster sessions, just one hour of slowing down and noticing the wonder in a local natural space. In this time she was able to notice how interconnected we are with the trees, leaves and the pale blue sky 🌱🌳🌻

She then got inspired to write this beautiful poem, a reminder to slow down. Thank you Jemma! I'm super grateful for this gift which leaves a lasting memory of this special experience 😊🌱✨🙏🏼✨

Sending spring power,

What a breathtaking weekend to appreciate our wild Scottish land. I'm filled with gratitude after the wonderful Cath at .quietlife organised a thoughtful and nature rich schedule for our Forest Bathing Guide Gathering. It was my first time visiting this beautiful corner of the Cairngorms and being able to mindfully appreciate this with so many experienced guides really enriched the experience. 😊🙏🏼🪷✨

This photos are from the first day, starting with a dawn chorus to welcome the morning and a sunny spring appreciation of Loch Garten & Abernethy Reseve. We took time to give spontaneous nature connection invites. Mine was the nature art, see our gallery here!🌱✨

I'm leaving with so much nature connection inspiration I can't wait to get out on my next walks and try out new ideas 💡

Thanks to

Although the sun has been hiding behinds the clouds a lot, it is still always there!

I always benefit from a reminder of this on the grey days. Despite the clouds, getting outside and noticing nature still fills up my cup! I'm always more surprised in the winter months how much green and growth there is, if only we stop to look 😊🌱✨

If you need a gentle reminder to still get out and slowly notice the joys of your local park, let this be it ✨🙏🏼🌱🌻

I'll be practising what I preach and off grid for most of this week, I hope to see some of you lovely folk on a walk soon!

Warm wishes

If you're finding it hard to get out into nature and appreciate January, you are not alone! ❄️🌱

Forest bathing is a way to slow down and mindfully connect, to enjoy the little moments of joy that often pass us by. I've had the joy guiding many of these walks over the last few years. Each one is special and unique based on the constellation of people who choose to participate and share what they notice and love most about nature. 😊🪷✨

If you're feeling curious, or just wish to try a new way of accepting and finding joy in January, it would be wonderful to have you join us! 🙏🏼✨

The slowing of November is bringing me into the cosy Hygge season. These bright clear mornings are such a gift. I was excited to see the beginnings of the light show at it'll look all the more wonderful under darkness.

May the crisp leaves, cosy blankets and soothing candles help you land into this darker time of the year. ✨🌻🍂

An attitude of gratitude is one of the simple daily practices that can strengthen the positive pathways in our mind. I spent 30 minutes writing down some of the things in really grateful for in my life and sharing a few on here to inspire you too! 🍁🍂✨🙏🏼
