Therapeutic Hiking Group For Women: Hiking as a tool for mindfulness, self-discovery & self-care. |
 | Feedback From Participants.... "Thank you to you both for organizing this group experience. Your knowledge, care, preparation and thoughtfulness were evident in all that was presented. Thank you for holding such a sacred and safe place for us to gather, listen, share and be. Thank you for your wonderful energy." | 
| | | "It was lovely observing you both and your great relationship. It is rare to be able to watch two people balance each other so well. Thank you!" | Jen & Debbie offer a Spring and a Fall hiking series for women who find peace, enthusiasm, and connection in the outdoors. We lead these groups from both our personal and professional experiences using hiking as a tool for growth. Participants have the opportunity to learn basic hiking skills and become familiar with local hiking trails while increasing mindful presence of body and spirit. Meditation, art, journaling, and ritual will be utilized as options to increase self-discovery along the journey. There is a focus on each season, how nature mirrors the healing process, and how to integrate this wisdom into our lives. | | | "I think having breakfast was a great idea - because there is something special about eating with each other." "It was above and beyond what I thought would happen. The food was fabulous!" | Each day begins with a healthful, hot breakfast prepared to order (Jen puts her culinary school experience to work!) and snacks throughout the day are provided. Also, backpacks, water bottles, and rain gear are supplied...although of course participants are welcome to bring their own. The hikes are moderate/intermediate in difficulty - appropriate for some 1st time/beginning hikers as well as more experienced hikers. The group meets one Saturday a month for three consecutive months. There is also an orientation meeting the Thursday night before the first Saturday group. Cost is $500 - which includes breakfast, water/snacks, art supplies, group materials & leadership, and access to packs and rain gear. We also develop and lead hiking/group experiences designed for specific groups: sports teams, businesses, agency/staff retreats, special occasions, friends/peers, etc. | | | |  | ORIENTATION | March Thur 27th 6:30 - 8:30 pm | HIKE DAY | March Sat 29th 8am - 5:30 pm | HIKE DAY | April Sat 26th 8am - 5:30 pm | HIKE DAY | May Sat 17th 8am - 5:30 pm |
