Thank you for booking a Woodland Meditation session with The Naturally Curious. Please read the following information carefully to help you prepare for a safe and enjoyable experience.

Clothing and Equipment

Please be advised that while we won’t be walking far and will mostly stay on paths, it’s still important to wear sensible footwear suitable for woodland terrain—something comfortable with a bit of grip. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and bringing extra layers, as your body can cool down during periods of stillness. Even in warmer months, temperatures in the woods can drop unexpectedly. Please also bring waterproofs in case of rain, a bottle of water, any snacks you may need, and any personal medication. As the session is mainly focused on guided breathwork and meditation, you’ll need something to lie on; a picnic blanket, yoga mat (that you don’t mind placing directly on the ground, blanket, or anything else that will enable you to feel warm and comfortable. Your comfort and safety are important to us, so we may need to turn participants away if not appropriately prepared for the conditions.

Weather Conditions

Woodland Meditation sessions go ahead in most weather—yes, even in light rain, which can often enhance the sensory experience. The forest canopy provides some natural shelter, but please dress appropriately for the forecast, including suitable footwear and waterproofs.

In the rare case we need to cancel due to extreme weather or other unexpected circumstances, we’ll offer you an alternative date.
If you're unable to attend a rescheduled session—or if we're at the end of the season and no future dates are available—you’ll be given the option of:

• A credit to use toward another event

• A full refund for individual bookings

• Or a refund for the remaining balance of any unused block bookings

Health Considerations

If you are in the first trimester of pregnancy, we recommend speaking with your healthcare provider before attending.

If you have any pre-existing medical conditions, are taking prescribed medication, or have recently had surgery or medical treatment, please consult your GP before attending. We also ask that you inform us of any relevant health concerns—such as mental health conditions, seizures, implants, or severe allergies—prior to the session so we can support your safety and comfort.

Woodland Meditation involves a short walk into the woods, followed by a period of stillness while seated or lying down. You are encouraged to participate in a way that feels right for you.

Potential Risks

While we take care to minimise risks, please be aware that this is an outdoor experience in a natural woodland environment. There may be uneven ground, tree roots, low branches, and other natural features to navigate. Emotional responses are also a normal part of this kind of practice, as the experience may bring a sense of deep connection or emotional release.

Age Restrictions

Please note that our events are exclusively designed for adults aged 18 and over. We do not currently offer sessions for minors.

Cancellation & Refund Policy

We understand that plans can change, so here’s what to expect if you need to cancel or reschedule.

Individual Bookings

• If you cancel more than 7 days before your session, you'll receive a full refund (minus any booking fees).

• If you cancel within 7 days, the booking is non-refundable, but we’ll do our best to help you reschedule to another available date.

• If you don’t attend on the day, the session is non-refundable and can’t be transferred, unless we’ve had to cancel the session ourselves.

Block Bookings (Voucher Codes)

• Your voucher is valid for you only, and covers 4 or 6 sessions, depending on your booking.

• You can reschedule with at least 24 hours’ notice.

• If you cancel with less than 24 hours’ notice, that session will be counted as used and can’t be refunded or moved.

• If we need to cancel a session, we’ll offer you a chance to rebook. If there are no future sessions left in the season, we’ll refund the remaining balance of any unused sessions.

Please note: Any refund or credit will be based on the original amount paid for your booking or voucher—not the full session price.

Minimum Group Size
Each session needs a minimum of 4 participants to go ahead. If that number isn’t met, we’ll be in touch to offer an alternative date. If we can’t find one that works, you’ll receive a refund or credit for any missed session(s), based on what was paid at the time of booking (as per above).
