Connect to nature
for health

 

GUIDED, NATURE-BASED MINDFULNESS & Meditation

We all know that time spent in nature is good for us, but connecting to nature offers transformative, long-lasting benefits for both humans and the planet.  

Bathe in the embrace of nature as you rewild, reconnect and return to your true self.

THE OLIVE BRANCH.

At The Olive Branch we offer guided nature therapy through the ancient Japanese art of Forest Bathing (Shinrin Yoku). Helping people reconnect with nature and providing mindfulness based therapy to aid in alleviating stress, anxiety and helping to boost our immune system. We believe that by branching out to each other and making new connections, we can discover the natural healing properties that our beautiful green spaces have to offer.

We also offer group and one-to-one meditation sessions through the practice of Yoga Nidra. This meditative practice can give a powerful shift in our body and promote positive mental health and support our immune system.

At The Olive Branch we can provide, as part of our Forest Bathing and hiking packages, plant based meal options that are designed to compliment the experience and aid in the education and prevention of many lifestyle illnesses.

Please explore our website and discover how we can help you to reconnect to nature.

    Laura Plackett

  • “Just wanted to thank you again for yesterday, it was really magical. I had no idea what to expect but was blown away by everything it was. I got home on a real high and felt so zen! I honestly felt so connected to not only nature but also myself. Your meditation at the end was hypnotic.”

    Amy Osbourne

  • “I truly loved my Forest Bathing experience with Sarah and Matt. In such a busy world it was so lovely to be given the time to get back to nature. I learnt so much about the healing properties of the forest and left feeling calmer and more grounded. The stress of the world literally fell from my shoulders and I slept so well that night! Matt’s food was incredible and a perfect end to a beautiful evening.”

    Helen and Abby - The Chichester Collective

  • "I recently attended one of Sarah's Forest bathing events at Kingley Vale, and I loved every minute! Sarah is so knowledgeable, and her passion for forest bathing and its benefits is a joy to see. Being in nature taking time out of the busy week to include a guided mindfulness meditation with the trees, soil, breathwork and visualisations was incredible and just what I needed. I wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone I speak to! Thank you, Sarah; I am so looking forward to the next one. "
