Highlights

One Garden Brighton - Enjoy wellness and nature in the scenic countryside behind Brighton. We will start the day with a feel-good yoga flow in One Garden, before heading into the surrounding woodlands to experience Shinrin-Yoku or forest bathing. One Garden is Brighton’s most beautiful garden, surrounded by the Southdowns Nationalpark, just a 15-minute drive from Brighton centre.

Yoga at One Garden
We will meet at 9:30 AM and start the day with yoga in a cosy studio or on the beautiful lawns. The studio is tucked away, with two bi-folded doors creating an inside-outside atmosphere. Also situated inside the tranquil garden walls is a restaurant, a food market, and a cafe.

Forest bathing?
The term shinrin-yoku means “taking in the forest atmosphere”. It is as simple as walking through nature and connecting with what’s around you. The practice is proven to reduce stress, improve memory and offer calm and peaceful clarity.

Weather
The weather is mostly fine, and the event is lovely, even with some light rain. The event can easily be adjusted to an indoor/outdoor event as the studio is surrounded by nature, a beautiful garden and the great woods.

Additional Information

Find serenity and calm in the splendid woodlands of Brighton’s wildlife sanctuary - Stanmer Park, and indulge in ‘Shinrin Yoku’ – otherwise known as forest bathing.

A unique escape from the rapid-paced modern world, this practice of observing nature and mindful breathing is scientifically demonstrated to lower stress levels, enhance memory and provide a sense of quiet and peaceful clear-headedness.

During your four-hour excursion, you’ll explore secluded parts of the forest under the guidance of a professional instructor, absorbing the sights and sounds of the woodlands and open fields, followed by an introductory session of rejuvenating yoga flow and forest bathing. It’s the ideal chance to reconnect with Mother Nature, find yourself, and possibly embrace a new pastime.

Suitable for both residents and visitors.

Relaxing autumn day out - Lovely day, fantastic host who adapted the session to accommodate individual guests abilities and interests. As someone who loves the forest environment I still found the experience brought a whole new insight into the landscape. I was Introduced to trees and some of their folklore and history that I found fascinating. Recommend to anyone who needs an invitation to unplug and tune into the healing qualities of time spent in nature!
