BE in Nature: Practice Mindful Whole-Heartedness

About:

Let the Garden’s natural beauty and wholeness remind you of your own. Sit, stand, walk, stretch, imagine, and BE yourself as we play with a range of embodied meditation practices. Whether you’re wanting to ground, branch, bloom, connect, gain clarity, build resilience, or increase compassion, practicing together in nature allows us fresh opportunities to breathe into our own authenticity, celebrate interconnection, and step forward with more awareness. Each month we’ll focus on a different theme.

On Thursday, March 7, Root and Bloom is an embodied exploration of the practice of rooting and grounding into earth. From this connection, we begin to feel a natural uprising of energy and a strength that supports us blossoming more fully into our own gifts and wholeness.

Please bring paper and pen with you to this class. We highly recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes and bringing an extra layer of clothing.
