Attunement to nature brings about a greater sense of connection and well-being to life and I wish to share it with others. Through Mindful Outdoor Practices and Guided Writing Meditations, we begin to slow down our habitual ways of seeing the world. This allows an entire new relationship to form with all things, both living and not. Through breath and relaxation, everyday objects can open up a dialogue of great communication which ultimately enlivens our senses and opens us towards the magic of birds, trees, and medicinal plants.
Technological usage is approaching an all-time high. Everyday we are glued to our screens for hours upon hours, each new app vying for our attention. When we tune our senses to the beauty of a flying bird or the sound of a stream, we develop an inner sense of freedom and aliveness becoming one with our true nature. In doing so, we are able to fully embrace the magic of our existence in real time- in the more-than-human world. Come Join In! What is a class? In a 1 hr and a half we will:
1. Brief introduction to who I am, the land, its indigenous and colonial history, and what you can expect.
2. Relaxation- Gentle movement exercises to get the Chi flowing, mindful Breathwork/gentle yoga , and thoughts on nature connection
3. A small bonfire while reading some sacred poetry
4.A walking meditation to feel and observe the sights and sounds of nature, to get out of the thinking mind and connect with the more intuitive/symbolic communication/ representation of the earth- Shinrin Yoku, Forest Bathing
5.A sit spot meditation under a tree, but keeping eyes open to notice wildlife. Writing and Creativity Practice
6.Closing Circle with talking piece, listening from the heart, and a parting gift of something from nature.
Taking an active part in our own creative process encourages us to embody our natural gift and expression. Habitual mental patterns can stymie and stifle our creative flow and lead us into the belief we have nothing to share with the world. Practices to listen and embrace our inner critic open up a new relationship with our long held distortions. Core beliefs of "I'm not good enough" and "I'm too old" are common habits our thinking can create, and while our goal is not to abandon and abolish these thoughts but to hear how they're trying to protect us and work with them from a new light, we begin a new dialogue. Sharing our creative poetry and stories enable us to heal old wounds and move towards joy, together in a safe environment welcome to ALL.
