Join guide Stefanie Haug while exploring nature and celebrating Elderhood. Dr. Louise Aronson is attributed for naming "Elderhood" as the penultimate and vital and rich phase of human life. Nature likewise offers many examples of non-human Elders that also continue to grow, connect and contribute to the world around us. As a group we'll connect with nature mindfully with a gentle walk and draw on contemplative practices. Throughout and together, we'll explore how nature invites us to connect from the inside-out and the outside-in. Come share your wisdom and celebrate your Elderhood.
What to bring: layered clothing, comfortable shoes and water.
