Latitude 55 Outdoors connects people with nature to reduce stress, improve overall wellbeing & build capacity, confidence & calm.

It was founded by Sarah Murray-Boyd, a Canberra-based outdoor activity facilitator, nature and forest therapy guide and event manager.

Latitude 55 runs activities for individuals, small groups and workplaces that get people outside and builds deep embodied connections to self and nature through mindfulness, nature meditation and somatic techniques. 

What to expect

  Nature and forest therapy is a guided, intentional practice that invites you to slow down, engage your senses, and build a deeper connection with yourself and the natural world. It can help regulate the nervous system, improve mood, and support overall wellbeing.   In these gentle sessions you will be led through a series of techniques such as mindful breathing, sensory awareness, intention setting and silent observation that encourage relaxation, presence and reflection.
