Description
Join us for the final hike in the Mindfulness Hike series. On this hike we will hike a loop along the escapement which includes the Anne & Clayton Roberts Side Trail. We will move at a leisurely pace.
To assist us in quieting our minds, this will be an unplugged hike, meaning you will be required to leave your phone behind but the hike leader will bring a (powered off) cellphone in case of emergency. We will begin with a sensory meditation and hike in complete silence for most of this hike. Depending on the weather we may hike without shoes as a means of connecting more deeply with our bodies and the ground beneath us.
Everyone is welcome, no prior meditation or hiking experience necessary. To allow time to slow down mindfully, we will be out for approximately 2 hours.
