About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours

3-hour guided workshop | No experience needed

This isn’t about managing your symptoms.
It’s about coming home to your body in a way that feels safe, slow, and real.

Perimenopause and menopause can stir up so much:
Foggy thinking. Emotional swings. A body that doesn’t feel like yours.
You might be sleeping less. Feeling more. Losing touch with the calm you once knew.

But this isn’t a problem to solve.
It’s a powerful transition to honour.


WHAT TO EXPECT:

  • A 3-hour guided Forest Bathing experience, slow, quiet, restorative
  • Somatic practices to help calm your mind and tune into your senses
  • Simple rituals you can take home to ease hormonal overwhelm
  • A beautiful circle of women, moving through this season alongside you
  • Time to be held, not hurried

You’ll leave feeling grounded, nourished, and more like you.


WHY IT MATTERS:

The menopause transition isn’t just physical, it’s emotional, existential, identity-shifting.
Most spaces focus on what’s “wrong” with your body.
This one helps you reclaim what’s right about it.

Nature becomes your mirror.
Your restorer.
Your steady ground in the flux.


READY TO COME BACK TO YOURSELF?

No prep. No pressure. Just presence.
Your first breath of deep relief could begin here.


A slower way through: Nature.

Join me, Tansy, for a gentle, sensory-rich experience designed to soothe your system and reconnect you to your own rhythm, held by the woods.

Forest Bathing (from the Japanese Shinrin-Yoku) is the art of walking slowly, attentively, and mindfully in Nature.
It isn’t exercise.
It isn’t therapy.
It’s a practice of presence, and your nervous system will thank you for it.

WHAT TO WEAR AND BRING

Sensible comfortable clothes and supportive shoes


Warm comfortable clothes


Warm Waterproof jacket advisable in case of light showers


Blanket for extra warmth if you like.


Water to stay hydrated


I will provide some snacks but you are welcome to bring additional


I provide a waterproof sit-mat and have waterproof ponchos you can use as an extra layer if you like.


In every Forest Bathing workshop, I have held, I am always deeply grateful to see a look of peace and contentment on the faces of the participants as they leave the forest. In our fast-paced lives, we rarely get the chance to find this kind of tranquillity and connection and it can be a very moving and comforting experience.
