The natural world is full of small wonders that often go unnoticed. When we slow down and pay attention, we begin to see the intricate beauty, patterns, and connections that surround us.
Join us for a gentle 4-hour journey through the woodlands of Stanmer Park, designed to cultivate presence, curiosity, and a sense of childlike wonder. Together, we'll explore the world of fungi, wild plants, and the hidden details of the forest, learning to observe nature through a slower, more mindful lens.
Led by Christian from Urban Forage and Max from All Things Fungi, this immersive experience combines nature connection, mushroom and plant discovery, and grounding breathwork inspired by the interconnectedness of the natural world.
The experience concludes with a warming mushroom dish and foraged tea at Urban Forage headquarters.
Pair your wellness day with a 1 hour Sauna Ritual at the Stanmer sauna Garden, you can add this at checkout (as we know Sauna isn't for everyone) as an Add On. 11.30am or 5.30pm to start or finish your experience.
