About this Event
Celebrate abundance, balance and equilibrium during this immersive morning nature connection retreat! During this seasonal transition, we’ll mark the threshold between summer and fall, honoring the Earth’s bountiful harvest while slowing our pace, awakening our senses, and practicing embodied acts of gratitude. Honoring this liminal 5th season connecting with ourselves, each-other, and the more-than-human-world, nourishing the relationships that sustain and connect us.
Your guide, Kelly Bruce, will lead you on a colorful journey through the early autumn forest, weaving mindfulness, breathwork, forest bathing and nature therapy together for a restorative morning on some of the trails less traveled at the North Carolina Arboretum. We'll celebrate the experience in community with a wild-foraged tea ceremony and snacks. Bring an open mind and an open heart. All are welcome. Presented through Adult & Continuing Education Programs in collaboration with Asheville Wellness Tours.
