Environment Events in Eugene

Join us for an immersive river walk and urban forest bath (Shinrin-yoku) along the vibrant and deeply restorative Willamette River. Forest bathing, also known by the Japanese term shinrin-yoku, is a mindful practice of spending slow, intentional time in a forest or natural setting to support mental, emotional, and physiological well-being. These special forest bathing experiences will be nourishing to the soul, offering a safe space to wander, reflect, and restore. We begin with a guided mindfulness meditation, then experience the Owen Rose Garden through a series of exploratory invitations that encourage grounding and playfulness with nature. Walks will conclude with shared reflections.
