Potomac Overlook Regional Park

Celebrate autumn in the embrace of the season’s fullness at Potomac Overlook Regional Park with a Saturday afternoon retreat. 

Slow down with forest bathing and journaling in the comfort of nature. All adults (ages 18+) are welcome to join this restorative experience with certified nature therapy guide and story weaving facilitator Ilana Rubin of Kindred Nature. Tea, light snacks, and journals provided. 

Through sensory nature connection invitations, peaceful moments of reflection, guided journaling, and optional sharing, you'll discover the sweet joy of being present with the abundance of the season and its fall foliage. Our journey culminates in sharing tea and light snacks beneath the leafy canopy, celebrating the nurturing spirit that flows through all of nature.

No experience needed. We'll walk less than a mile at a contemplative pace over various terrain (paved/unpaved, flat/sloped), with activities adaptable to your comfort level. Come alone for peaceful reflection, or share the experience with someone special in your life.
