Wellness Wednesdays Journalling Series

11/16/2022 01:00 PM - 02:00 PM PT

Description

This week’s topic is Gratitude in Nature. Participants will be invited to think of various ways in which they can practice gratitude in nature. We will consider the benefits of gratitude and how we can appreciate all aspects of nature, even the less-pleasant parts!

Wellness Wednesdays offer a space for participants to connect with themselves, nature and community through mindfulness, gentle silence and observational activities in nature. This winter, we invite you to engage in our indoor journalling series that will include guided wellness activities, time and space for expression and shared reflections. This program aims to evoke thoughtful reflections on what it means to exist with, among or nearby nature and how nature holds expressions of us all. Each session will have a focal theme that relates to positionality in nature and sparks the discussion. We may explore pieces of art or literature that align with the topic to help inspire and prompt introspection. A Community Educator will guide participants through journalling prompts. This program is community orientated and aims to bring us closer to nature and each other!
