Walking With Grief: Mindfulness Walk – Denver
Join us for a mindfulness walk that honors ourselves, our connection with nature and with our grief. A mindfulness walk is a type of meditative, contemplative, intentional walk that creates movement while focusing our body’s on physical sensations and what nature around us is doing and evoking within us. It can be a helpful way to copy with grief by helping to get out of our heads and back into our bodies, and in connection with the world of nature.
