Mindfulness In Nature is a “Down to Earth” approach to Mindfulness Meditation. We use nature as part of the mindfulness experiences. One can practice mindfulness with a leaf, a branch, a tree, a stone, a flying bird, a fire, the landscape, clouds and more. Gently, we increase our connection to self and nature.

Mindfulness is paying attention to one’s Breath, Emotions, Thoughts, Senses and Surroundings (BETSS) with less Judgment. Mindfulness is used for many reasons, including stress reduction, better physical health, better mental health, plus improved relationships with oneself and others.

Our meetings will include discussions and short mindfulness exercises/practices. We will explore sitting, standing, and moving mindfulness exercises.

Everyone is welcome from beginners to the experienced. No judgments.
