Walk Your Problems: A Nature-Based Workshop for Optimism and Resilience
Event Details
In-Person 3 Hour NATURE WORKSHOP
Step outside and experience nature as a powerful teacher.
In a fast-paced and often overwhelming world, it’s easy to feel disconnected from ourselves and our purpose. This workshop is an invitation to step outside and experience nature as a powerful teacher for finding clarity and purpose in how we show up for ourselves, our relationships, and our work. Rather than providing simple answers that fall flat, this humans-in-nature experience uses the outdoors and our own awareness as a guide to explore our challenges and the opportunities of life. This is a practical workshop that blends together conversation, guided exercises, and space to benefit from what nature has to offer us and what we can offer ourselves through nature.
Learning Objectives
-
- Reconnect with the wisdom of the natural world to gain perspective on the patterns of change and resilience in your own life, work, and relationships.
- Practice holding the tension between current challenges and future possibilities, developing a “grounded optimism” that is both realistic and hopeful.
- Explore the season of life you are in and how the seasons of nature provide perspective on navigating cycles of change.
- Craft a personal set of practices, routines, and actions that can help you maintain a grounded, resilient path regardless of season.
