About this Event

This workshop offers a gently paced, immersive experience designed to bring you fully into the present moment. Stepping away from the busyness of daily life and into the quiet serenity of Reflection Riding’s diverse forests, you'll be invited to deepen your connection with both yourself and the living Earth—cultivating a more meaningful relationship with your more-than-human kin.

As birdsong serenades your nervous system and the lush greens wrap you tenderly in their quiet embrace, you’ll be guided by a trained ecotherapist through restorative practices such as silent sensory walks, reciprocal engagement with nature, nature journaling, gratitude practices, reflective dialogue, and much more.

This experience nurtures a sense of belonging, mindful presence, and holistic healing—offering practices and perspectives to carry with you long after you leave the forest.
