Overview

Discover peace and tranquillity in the beautiful woodlands of Brighton’s nature reserve - Stanmer Park, and experience ‘Shinrin Yoku’ – also known as forest bathing.

A unique antidote to the hustle and bustle of modern life, this method of observing nature and breathwork is proven to reduce stress, improve memory and offer a calm and peaceful clarity.

Your four-hour experience will see you walk through remote parts of the forest with an expert instructor, taking in the sights and sounds of the woodlands and open fields, followed by a beginner-friendly session of feel-good yoga flow and forest bathing. It’s the perfect opportunity to get back to nature, reconnect with yourself, and discover a new hobby.

Good for locals and tourists.

What Can You Expect?

Itinerary

Enjoy wellness and nature in the scenic countryside behind Brighton. We will start the day with a feel-good yoga flow in One Garden, before heading into the surrounding woodlands to experience Shinrin-Yoku or forest bathing. One Garden is Brighton's most beautiful garden, surrounded by the Southdowns Nationalpark, just a 15-minute drive from Brighton centre.

Yoga at One Garden
We will meet at 9:30 AM and start the day with yoga in a cosy studio or on the beautiful lawns. The studio is tucked away, with two bi-folded doors creating an inside-outside atmosphere. Also situated inside the tranquil garden walls is a restaurant, a food market, and a cafe.

Forest bathing?
The term shinrin-yoku means "taking in the forest atmosphere". It is as simple as walking through nature and connecting with what's around you. The practice is proven to reduce stress, improve memory and offer calm and peaceful clarity.

Weather
The weather is mostly fine, and the event is lovely, even with some light rain. The event can easily be adjusted to an indoor/outdoor event as the studio is surrounded by nature, a beautiful garden and the great woods.

Lovely day, fantastic host who adapted the session to accommodate individual guests abilities and interests. As someone who loves the forest environment I still found the experience brought a whole new insight into the landscape. I was Introduced to trees and some of their folklore and history that I found fascinating. Recommend to anyone who needs an invitation to unplug and tune into the healing qualities of time spent in nature!

We had a team well-being half day with Xenia last week. We are a small team of NHS professionals and Xenia kindly made us a bespoke package. We had a wonderful yoga session in amongst the trees which was a wonderful way to stretch and feel into my body whilst feeling held by nature. She also provided us with some lovely natural tea and flavours of the season. Then we walked to another woodland for some forest bathing exercises. These were both fun and immensely nurturing to just lie on a tree and focus on the surroundings. We all felt very connected by the end of the day and inspired to consider how to bring elements of the practice into our work. I loved Xenia's incredibly warm, calm and generous nature. I would highly recommend sessions with her and I look forward to doing more myself.
