"I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house"
– Nathaniel Hawthorne
Join Tracy for this outdoor experience which will connect yoga, hiking and meditation through the mindful guidance of nature. We will open our awareness to the sounds, scents and “feels” of the natural world around us, while awakening to the life force that pulses within all living beings. By focusing on our own body, breath, and mind, we create a more intimate connection to the life force within ourselves and our resonance with one another. This sense of interconnection is accessed through quiet presence, kind attention and shared community. Practicing yoga and mindful walking outdoors, can awaken us to our latent potential and healing, while nurturing our human relationship with our more-than-human world. After a LONG year indoors, let us unplug and take a walk outside together so that we may breathe, move, and heal.
This two-hour workshop will be a monthly offering in which we gather at a variety of natural locations within SE Connecticut. Each practice will include walking, all-levels yoga movement, mindfulness-inspired experience and meditation. Every location will offer its own unique hiking terrain, while all walking will be guided at a slow, mindful pace with the intention to be inclusive for most.
THIS MONTH WE WILL HONOR THE AUTUMNAL EQUINOX WITH MEDITATION, AYURVEDIC PRINCIPLES, SEASONAL REFLECTION AND INTENTION-SETTING RITUAL.
