    A gentle note

    Most of my offerings are not a hike, but we will be walking slowly and spending time outdoors.
    Expect uneven ground, natural surfaces, and moments of stillness.

    You don’t need any experience.

    This is about you: your needs, your pace, your abilities.

    If you have limited mobility or use a wheelchair, please feel free to email me before booking so we can explore how to best support your experience in the forest. We can always work together to make my offerings accessible and inclusive to your needs and abilities.

  • Sarah Frustié Therapy does not offer refunds for group experiences, including forest bathing, sacred forest immersion, and nature retreats.

    If you are unable to attend due to an unforeseen emergency, please email me as soon as possible. In these situations, I will do my best to offer a reschedule where possible.

    Please do not attend an event if you are feeling unwell or have COVID symptoms. If you cannot attend due to sickness, please contact me as soon as possible to discuss rescheduling options in line with the current policy.

    My intention is for you to still have the opportunity to experience the forest.

    Please note that sessions may be cancelled or postponed if minimum numbers are not met, or if conditions in the forest are unsafe (including bushfire risk or extreme weather: high winds, extreme heat (36℃+).

    In these cases, you will be offered the option to reschedule for another session.
