You do not have to have access to a forest to connect with nature and get the benefits of spending time in it! This experience will primarily take place onsite, walking the grounds and through the labyrinth. You will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the sounds, smells, and greenery around you. We will be discussing how to incorporate walking meditation and nature into your life. A brief grounding meditation will be used to open the practice with some tips for getting the most out of your experience. We will stay together as we walk with some time to explore on our own. You are encouraged to bring a journal to reflect on your experience. Please be mindful of the weather and dress in layers, wear appropriate footwear and consider sunscreen and/or bug spray when appropriate. In the event of inclement weather an alternative day will be provided. Optional: water bottle, bug spray, sunscreen.
Prices are listed for one-on-one experiences. Groups of 2 or more are welcome at a reduced price per person. Please use the Contact form to inquire about a curated experience for your unique party or visit our FAQ on group rates.
