  • Dress appropriately for walking on a wooded trail.
  • We will be mostly quiet so cell phones should be away and on silent.
    Please leave your dogs home so we can be fully engaged.
  • Feel free to bring a journal or anything to reflect or nurture yourself, post walk.

Program:

  • We will meet in the parking lot.
  • We will do light stretching to warm up.
  • Next we will do our guided meditation walk/hike (socially distanced, with facial masks).
  • We will close with Reflection (on your own time to notice and reflect on your experience).

The class is free, but space is limited.
