NATURE & FOREST THERAPY WALKS
Walks are hosted in person in and around Chicago. During cooler months, we gather indoors at the Garfield Park Conservatory.
Get out of your head, slow down, awaken your senses and experience nature’s gifts of presence, reciprocity, renewal and spaciousness.

WHEN YOU’RE READY TO BREATHE DIFFERENTLY
You spend most days in motion: leading, managing, responding, producing. Even the moments meant for pause are filled with noise. Nature invites you to slow down, to remember what stillness feels like, to reconnect with the rhythm that already lives within you.
“I WANT MY TEAM TO RECONNECT BEYOND THE MEETING ROOM.”
You’re looking for a shared experience that fosters presence, reflection, and trust - a chance to strengthen relationships and bring balance back to the workday.
“I CAN’T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME I FELT GROUNDED.”
You’re seeking more than an escape; you’re seeking renewal and an opportunity to quiet the mind and open the senses in a way that lingers long after the walk ends.
“I NEED SOMETHING THAT RESTORES, NOT JUST RELAXES.”
You move from one responsibility to the next, rarely taking time to simply be. You crave space to breathe, reset, and listen to yourself and to the world around you.
Whether you join as an individual, bring your team along, or if you want to organize an outing for a women’s retreat, these walks offer a pause that’s both gentle and profound. Nature will remind you that slowing down can be its own form of progress.
NATURE AND FOREST THERAPY WALKS
We’ll meet in the forests and nature sanctuaries in and around Chicago. When it’s just a bit too cold in Chicago, we will gather indoors at the Garfield Park Conservatory.
The winter (indoor) and spring, 2026 schedule will be posted by January 1, 2026. Please send an inquiry to marguerite@inhalene.com for private and group reservations starting again in late spring, summer and fall, 2026.
