About this event
Forest Bathing Walk at the Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool Enjoy the final event of our 2026 Wellness Series at the Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool with the practice of forest bathing. The Wellness Series at Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool is sponsored by Mullen Circle Brand and a collaboration between Busy Body Retreats and the Lincoln Park Conservancy. A portion of all ticket sales supports the work of the Lincoln Park Conservancy. Join Jane Wandless, Certified Nature & Forest Therapy Guide and founder of JEM Nature & Forest Therapy , for a one-hour guided forest bathing walk at the Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool. Forest bathing is the practice of moving mindfully and slowly through nature, inviting the senses to fully experience the sights, sounds, textures, and scents of the environment. Backed by extensive research, forest bathing has been shown to help reduce stress, lower blood pressure, ease anxiety, and foster a profound sense of calm and well-being. During this walk, Jane will guide you through a series of gentle sensory invitations to help you slow down and reconnect to yourself and the natural world. You’ll move at an easy, unhurried pace – no hiking or strenuous activity required. No experience is needed – this is a welcoming space for all. Come as you are, and leave feeling rested, reconnected, and renewed. The Lily Pool will be closed to the public until 9:30 AM, providing a private, tranquil setting for this experience. The main entrance on Fullerton Ave will close at 8:40 AM to preserve this quiet space.
