Plants are great, but it's the people that make our garden special.
Feel the earth as you rest in savasana surrounded by the nourishment and beauty of nature. In this series your instructor will kindly guide you through gentle, opening postures using the breath and a focused mind. This practice is accessible to all-levels and modifications will be provided. Class will be inside if the weather is poor. Bring your own mat and water bottle. **No class on July 4!**
Mindfulness is the act of consciously focusing the mind in the present moment, with awareness of judgments, and without attachment to the moment. Our time together will include sitting, standing, and moving mindfulness exercises and discussion in a judgment-free space using plants, flowers and the gardens as inspiration. Everyone is welcome from beginners to the experienced.
Explore the lush landscape of the gardens with a nature-inspired writing prompt, return to the classroom to reflect on your experience, and share your writing if you would like. This class will inspire writers of all experience levels to find fresh joy in the writing process and challenge participants to look at the natural world through new eyes.
Have you been dreaming of creating your own rain garden or looking to revitalize one?
