Weather Policy—Forest Bathing sessions are run in all conditions with the exception of high winds, lightning, or other extreme weather (where it would not be possible to keep participants comfortable and/or safe). There are additional benefits of doing a session in wet weather (all will be revealed by your guide) and often the tree canopy protects participants from inclement weather. If we do need to cancel a session we aim to give you as much advance notice as possible and rebook the session on an alternative day.

Clothing and Equipment—Please note: You may get cold even in summer! Please wear long pants and tops with sleeves and walking shoes or similar with good grip and ankle suppor—ideally waterproof. Your body temperature can significantly reduce as we move slowly in the forest and stop regularly so bring extra layers of clothing and a coat. Please also bring water and sun protection if required, and any food or medications you might need. 

Refund Policy—Please note that refund requests must be made within 7 days of the event to be refunded in full, less any related booking fees. No refunds will be issued in case of non-attendance or late cancels (less than 7 days before event). If we have to cancel the event for any reason, you will be offered an alternative date or, if a suitable date cannot be arranged, a full refund. If there is an emergency and you cannot attend, please contact Rooted Tending at 315-690-4388 or Becky@Rootedtending.com.

Medical conditions/medications/pregnancy—If you have any medical conditions or health-related concerns, or are on a prescribed medication that may impact your participation in an outdoor event, please reach out to your medical practitioner and discuss attending with them. If you currently experience or have a history of serious health issues (including mental health issues, operations, medical procedures, seizures, implants, special needs, severe allergies etc), please let us know so that we can look after you properly. Your needs will be treated confidentially and with care.

Possible risks—Forest Bathing involves breathing deeply, walking slowly through a wooded area, standing and sitting/lying. Potential physical risks of doing Forest Bathing are associated with the walking and breathing exercises, and certain natural hazards (e.g. roots, branches). Forest bathing can be an emotional activity: you may find that certain emotions surface during the exercises (for example, relating to your understanding of yourself or your relationship with the environment). This is a normal reaction and happens when our bodies relax and release tension.
