MOE Mindful Outdoor Experience

This is a free offering* A mindful outdoor experience (MOE) is an opportunity to invite present moment awareness or mindfulness, to connect more deeply with our own breath, the land, and one another. ​

All practices are based around the idea of Rewilding: This is the process of rekindling our connection to nature and unearthing a truer, wilder, more holistic way of life that is more in sync with our human biology

Earthing or Grounding in nature has been proven to help fight chronic diseases, decrease inflammation, relieve stress and depression, promote faster healing, stronger immune systems, and more. New research is beginning to reveal why: Contact with nature affects us, mentally and physically, right down to our cells.
