Description
If you are looking for an opportunity to connect to nature and can’t go on an in-person walk with me in Vermont, look no further! Connecting to nature is so essential to our wellbeing- for healing and respite. Exposure to nature has been shown to help with stress, anxiety and depression. That’s why I have designed this experience: A one hour virtual forest bathing experience to do wherever you are, inside or outside. Experience Outside Participate out in nature with your mobile device wherever there is cell reception/wifi. Participate while you forest bathe via video or by calling in and using the audio to guide you. Please dress appropriately for the weather and use common sense to be safe in your environment. Consider bringing a small mat, bag, or cushion to sit on and a thermos with tea- optional. Experience Inside Watch and participate from home on your desktop or mobile device while I broadcast live in the forest. You can simply watch or actively participate by interacting with the elements of nature in your home or through your window and sharing your experience with me and other participants.

CERTIFIED NATURE & FOREST THERAPY GUIDE
Duncan is a Certified Nature & Forest Therapy guide living and working in Vermont. He grew up on the shores of Lake Champlain where his deep connection to Nature was formed. Following his passion for art, he moved to NYC where he lived and worked as a professional actor for 14 years. Nature called him to become a horticulturist so he transitioned to become a NYC parks department gardener which lead him to a life of nature (re) connection. After receiving his Nature & Forest Therapy Guide Certification from the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy (ANFT) in 2015, he began his practice in New York City guiding the first forest bathing groups in Central Park. He then moved back to his home state in Vermont in 2015 and began his work with the Intervale Center growing and planting native trees where he now serves as the Land Stewardship Coordinator. As a wellness practitioner, he is part of the UVM Integrative Health Practitioner Network and frequently conducts forest bathing experiences throughout Vermont and the world, in-person and online with his organization, Nature Connection Guide.
