About this Event

Somatic Sensory Stroll: Connection + Curiosity

Join us for a unique experience at the Royal Botanical Gardens - Hendrie Valley Sanctuary (Cherry Hill Gate). This event is all about connecting with nature and exploring your curiosity through somatic sensory activities. Let's immerse ourselves in the beauty of the surroundings and engage our senses in a mindful way. Come ready to awaken your senses and deepen your connection to the natural world around you. Don't miss out on this opportunity to slow down, breathe, and appreciate the wonders of the outdoors.

Get out your head and into you body in this immersive nature experience.

Together we take a gentle walk through the wildlife sanctuary trails of the Royal Botanical Gardens. These beautiful grounds feature a diverse ecosystem and myriad of wildlife giving us so much to observe. As we connect with our senses, through the awareness of our environment, we will shift our focus from thinking to feeling. We will take our time, moving mindfully and often quietly along the pathway, taking several pauses to bring awareness to both the external and internal landscape.

Through somatic movement, observation and introspection, we give our self permission to be consumed by the experience of the present moment. Nourish your senses and nurture your curiosity, join us for this engaging hike through the woods.
