MINDFULNESS IN NATURE
This unique experiential workshop takes place outdoors … either full day or half-day. It’s suitable for all fitness levels, and can be adapted to any group’s specific needs/desires, budget, and location — within Upstate South Carolina or Western North Carolina. It’s a wonderful, enriching experience in the green world!

I also offer live online presentations for groups interested in mindfulness and nature. My talks are packed with practical information on the benefits of spending time in the natural world and they include interactive, meditative practices. Here’s an example of a recent talk I gave:
“The first time a friend invited me to go on a Silent Hike, I was a bit hesitant. I hadn’t heard of such a thing. But I was intrigued and I was in need of a place to find peace.
Normally, our mind is busy racing through it all and not embracing the things we see, hear and smell: the smallest lizard on a limb … the sound of water grazing along rocks that shine in the sun … the way the trees are growing …
A Silent Hike is a precious opportunity. It has played an integral part in the healing of my heart.” — Danielle P.
