Escape the chaos and find inner peace in nature. Step away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, and immerse yourself in a tranquil and calming environment, allowing the healing atmosphere of the trees to reduce your stress and improve your mood. We often spend time meditating in seated postures or being mindful in asanas, but how often do we shift our awareness when we're simply walking?
We'll take the practice outside of the studio and follow the trail just behind the studio, focusing on our breath, on the fragrance and sounds around us, on sensations we feel and thoughts that come into the mind. We'll let go of all of it and silently walk together, basking in the healthy negative ions of the forest trail and finding meditation in movement.
Wear comfortable shoes (or slip them off), leave the phone in the car, and be ready to surprise yourself at the amount of stress you'll release and the peace you'll find on a short quiet walk through nature. Rain or shine. Dress accordingly.
