Walk Description:

We all know simply being in nature can de stress and help you to unwind but now the WALX Dorset team can help you to take that further by showing how to really harness that power.

Far more powerful than a walk through the woods, these workshops help you to understand the deep connection we have with nature and how to allow yourself to completely clear your mind. The results are far beyond any expectation as you emerge full of energy, positivity and joy! There is a raft of scientific evidence which proves the phenomenon of ‘forest bathing’ from the healing phytoncides ( wood oils from pine trees) which aid lungs and breathing to the reduction in blood pressure, boosting of the immune system and improvement in symptoms of depression.

We could show you the science but we prefer to take you deep into a wild Forset and let you discover it for yourselves. Join us and you will leave with the knowledge that joining us regularly is better than any pill!

Garston Woods was filled with wild flowers with a fantastic show of Wild Garlic and Bluebells, what will it have in store for us this time??
