Nature Rx at Confluence Park

What is Nature RX?

Nature RX is a series of wellness events presented by the San Antonio River Foundation, dedicated to sharing the healing power of nature with our community. Rooted in the understanding that wellness is an active process of making choices toward holistic health, this program supports physical, mental, social, and environmental well-being through meaningful connections with the San Antonio River and its surroundings.

Participants can engage in activities that include gentle meditative movement, forest bathing, outdoor yoga, mindfulness walks, and other nature-focused experiences, all designed to offer a rejuvenating encounter with nature. By integrating environmental education with intentional well-being practices, Nature RX fosters a deeper connection to nature while promoting personal and community health.

Objectives

The overarching goal of developing this program is to position SARF as a resource for improving community health by combining education, access to nature, and outdoor experiences.

  • Promoting Nature’s Benefits: Leveraging the scientifically proven health benefits of spending time in nature.

  • Identifying Health Challenges: Recognize and respond to widespread health challenges affecting our community.

  • Offering Programs: Provide SARF programs at Confluence Park and throughout the San Antonio River Basin that allow individuals to experience the restorative and therapeutic effects of nature.

  • Connect with Local Partners: Provide resources and build connections for our community to access health-focused practices and agencies
