DESCRIPTION:\nTuesday, June 16th,  6:00–8:30 p.m. Moraine Farm, 779 Cabot Street, Beverly\n\n\n\nThis evening hike will be a Forest Therapy experience of guided contemplative presence though forest and lakeside.  The motto of Forest Therapy (sometimes known as ‘Forest Bathing’) is ‘the forest is the therapist’.  We will alternate periods of quiet, attentive walking with opportunities for gentle sharing.  Come with openness to silence, delight and surprise!\n\n\n\nThe Walk 2.5 miles of gently rolling terrain through mature forest and along the shoreline of Wenham Lake, following trails designed by Frederick Law Olmsted. This hike is intentionally meditative — relaxed pace, with short readings and moments of silent reflection.\n\n\n\nYour Guides\n\n\n\n\nKent Harrop (NS SING) — welcoming\n\n\n\nMary Frohlich — Forest Therapy program leader; former spirituality professor at Catholic Theological Union in Chicago, trained Forest Therapy guide, spiritual director, and author of The Heart at the Heart of the World: Re-visioning the Sacred Heart for an Ecozoic Era (Orbis, 2024)\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Series This hike is part of a collaborative series between Ipswich River Watershed Association and the North Shore Spirituality in Nature Group (NS SING) ( http://nssing.org/ ), which offers monthly outdoor contemplative experiences — hiking, snowshoeing, kayaking, and canoeing — throughout the watershed.\n\n\n\nThis event is limited to 20 people.
