Details

SUNDAY FUNDAY !

We invite you to a FUN-Picknick after our regular Forest Play - session in the morning. You can choose to join both events or only join the Picknick (free) or the Forest Play (paid) separately.

Forest Play: 10h-13h - 18 euro
Picknick: 13h15 - 17h - Free

Meeting place for both: Parking Everzwijnbad in Oud-Heverlee (see description below)

For the picknick, we will bring some nice, healthy food and drinks to share. Please do so too, so we can make one big, beautiful meal outdoors and share some meaningful and joyful moments together.

FOREST PLAY (10h-13h)

The Forest Play - sessions are fun, natural and reconnecting outdoor group gatherings, focussed on restoring or replenishing energy and fun by playing and interacting with nature's healing elements.

Combining tension-releasing stretches, gentle flow-restoring work-outs with found trees, branches, logs, stones, hills..., doing silent or touch meditations and playful reconnecting games, we're able to bring out the little child in ourselves and start to feel free, unassuming, adventurous and connected with our own nature again, bringing back and sharing the joy and vitality we all carry deeply within. Our hearts gradually open and start reconnecting again.

The 3h-sessions focus on gradually increasing physical resilience, but include emotional and mental aspects as well to restore general holistic balance in body, mind and spirit. There is no competitive stake to it, there are no extremes or high-intensity actions involved. But we do play gently with personal comfort zones, sliding in and out, at times challenging our personal beliefs, convictions and limitations.

The sessions have powerful therapeutic value. They are developed, customised and guided by specialised trauma therapist Ken Christiaens. All exercises, while feeling light and fun, have a foundation in trauma and tension-releasing therapies, with elements of inner child work, constellations, reiki, NLP and others. Nature's increased healing potential is fully being harnessed here.

PRACTICAL
The Forest Play-session starts at 10h sharp and ends at 13h.

Meeting and end-point is always Parking Forest Playground Everzwijnbad, Weertsedreef 8-10, Oud-Heverlee (please read location description well, Google Maps can be a bit tricky).

You actually might get a bit dirty and sweaty at some point, please prepare for outdoor nature workout: sporty shoes with ribs, sporty clothes, a small towel (feet might get dirty or wet), maybe a pair of extra socks or tight sports gloves. Bring some water and a small snack, if you feel like.

The event will be cancelled, when the weather doesn't allow it.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask via personal message.

We hope to see and connect with you there!
