"Mindfulness Tourism" was Held in in the Kikuchi Valleys in Kikuchi City, Kumamoto Prefecture.

We delivered the "ultimate retreat" to maximize physical and mental performance in the Clear streams of Nature.
A special experience that sharpens your senses while feeling the breath of Nature away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Mindfulness walking incorporating meditation and breathing exercises.
I walked through the Kikuchi Valleys with the chief priest.
At each Spot, they slept on the rocky ground or did Zen meditation and quietly faced Nature.
In a calm atmosphere, everyone seemed to have refreshed their minds and bodies and found new awareness.

Held in on the first day "Mindfulness Walking and Tea Ceremony"
A tea ceremony was held in the Kikuchi Valleys by tea people.
For the tea ceremony, Kikuchi Valleys's Water is used.
In the quiet space of the morning, we calmed our minds and enjoyed delicious Tea quietly.

On the second day, they experienced "Mindfulness Walking and Breakfast Meeting".
Breakfast while feeling Nature in a dignified space in the morning.
I enjoyed it calmly with a truly relaxed feeling.
Water from the Kikuchi Valleys was used for cooking, and Meals using clay pot rice and Kikuchi Ingredients were served.

Everyone seemed to enjoy it.
By walking in touch with Nature in the morning, I was able to forget about my work worries and busyness.
The taste of matcha soaked into my moderately tired body, and the sound of the Clear streams seemed to sharpen my sense of hearing and taste.
Nature allowed me to meditate, and the murmur of the river and the cool air were pleasant.
New Rice cooked in a clay pot and nameko soup warmed my body and soul. The food was very elaborate and really delicious and very satisfying.
We received a lot of feedback.

A luxurious time where you can feel Kikuchi's food, Nature, and time to face yourself with your five senses.
It seems that you were able to feel that you can use the time only for yourself in Nature, where the time usually passes casually and the day ends.
