Mindfulness in Nature Summer Stroll

An opportunity to explore how making contact with nature can help you to slow down, bring attention to what is happening in your experience, feel a sense of calm and an appreciation and joy of the natural world around you.

Participants will be invited to take part in a series of gentle experiences that will focus on the five senses to help promote mindfulness through a connection with nature.

Duration: 2 hours 15 mins

Meet: Meet at Hollingworth Lake Country Park

Suitable for: adults who are interested in developing more of a connection with themselves and with nature and who would like to have calm and fulfilment in their everyday experiences. Whether you are a complete beginner or a practiced mindfulness practitioner you will find something of interest and of benefit within the session if you come with an open mind and a willingness to participate

Accessibility: the ground underfoot may not always be even. The pace of travel will be intentionally slow, walking less than 2 miles with frequent stops, and on occasion sitting on the ground (participants may wish to bring a folding chair). The experiences are kept very simple and designed to need very little instruction or explanation.

What to wear: we will be walking in all weather conditions -apart from severe conditions, if its pooring down and stormy the session will be cancelled for safety reasons. So please dress appropriately for the weather and for your own comfort.
