About this Event
🌿 What to Expect
2 hours of simple, guided exercises to connect with nature through your senses. You’ll get clear instructions, gentle guidance, and space to share or stay quiet—whatever feels comfortable for you.
We’ll meet at 13:00 at the park entrance (https://maps.app.goo.gl/BmUn3V76u6J2eEXM6). From there, we’ll walk together to the spot where our circle and other activities will take place. By 15:00, we’ll be back at the entrance where we started.
🌈 Why Join?
Because nature is the best! And so is community!
Spending time in nature supports health and well-being — it helps us relax, recharge, and feel more connected to ourselves and others.
It’s likely going to be fun!
You’ll meet new peeps or spend time with familiar faces, all while surrounded by trees and fresh air.
Also, you will help out a fellow nature-lover with their research on public spaces by filling out a 13 min survey after the event. Pretty please!
🚫 What This Is Not
- Not nature therapy — it’s a nature connection activity.
- Not a herbal medicine walk.
- Not a ritual.
💚 Cost
It is for free. After the event you're warmly invited (not required) to participate in a 13-minute survey for my Master's thesis on interactions in public spaces — full transparency, nothing is observed or studied during the event itself.
🌾 Who Is This For?
Anyone who loves nature — or who wants to explore what it’s like to be more present and connected in nature.
To help create a safe-enough space, all participants will be asked to fill out a short form in advance (about mobility, allergies, or anything else you’d like me to know as your guide).
If you cannot make it, please cancel in advance, so that someone else can take your spot.
🎒 What to Bring
- Sturdy shoes
- Rainproof clothes and/or an umbrella (just in case)
- Sunscreen (also just in case)
- Water, tea, or a small snack to share
- Extra layer of clothing in case it gets chilly
🕵️ Who is Organising this?
Noa is a nature connection guide and a counseling therapist in training. They spent 15 years in activism and they are now spending most of their time either touching grass, or bringing people together to touch grass. Solidarity, community and simplicity are at the core of their work. They always appreciate a dad joke and a crunchy snack.
