Moonrise Forest Bathing: A Magical Evening at The Kampong

Thursday, March 13, 2025

6:30 – 8:30pm

The Kampong

As twilight fades into moonlight, The Kampong opens its gates for an unforgettable evening of Full Moon Forest Bathing—a practice rooted in science and sensory exploration. Beneath the luminous night sky, time slows, senses awaken, and nature reveals its quiet magic.

Guided by neuroscientist Karina Del Punta, Ph.D., founder of neuroXnature, this rare after-hours experience invites you to move gently through the landscape, attune to the night’s embrace, and rediscover your deep connection to the living world. Wrapped in the fragrance of tropical blooms and the hush of Biscayne Bay, bathed in the full moon’s glow, let the night’s breath weave you into the rhythm of the land.

Pause. Sense. Awaken.
