Forest bathing
The Forest Bathing Circuit
It is not about distance. It is about presence. Slow down, pause and tune into the wisdom of the trees.
Self guided
A quiet, winding trail
Hidden within the forest at Secret Sanctuary is a quiet, winding trail we call the Forest Bathing Circuit, a self-guided experience designed to help you slow down and reconnect with nature.
Along the path, you’ll find gentle prompts to pause, reflect, and tune into the wisdom of the trees. It’s not about distance, it’s about presence.
Open to anyone visiting Secret Sanctuary, whether for a stay, a retreat, or just an afternoon drop-in, you can explore the path freely or request a printed guidebook filled with tree wisdom and grounding practices.
