Mindfulness in the gardens
Mindfulness is a type of meditation without dogma that is simple and suitable for anyone. The foundation of our work lies in the natural environment. We actively include nature as a co-creator of the calming benefits of our retreats. Dallidet Gardens is an ideal setting and offers a superior enhancement for the participants’ experiences of getting more in touch with themselves.
Engage your senses - sound, sight, touch - by sitting, walking and exploring in silent contemplation. Discover how the garden provides a naturally supportive setting. Learn how easy and effortless mindfulness can be. Your skilled guides will help you to enjoy this 1½ hour fresh, yet timeless, approach. All ages, genders, ethnicities, and abilities are encouraged to participate in this open, accepting space. Dallidet Adobe & Gardens 1185 Pacific Street, San Luis Obispo info@historycenterslo.org This retreat runs from 8:30 am to 10:00 the 4th Tuesday |
Reconnect to Nature
This 90 minute workshop will be an organic exploration of nature-based practices based on being present to the needs of our times. Practices will be partially inspired by ecophilosopher Joanna Macy’s book “The Work that Reconnects”.
Potential activities may include embodiment practices, mindful movement, creative play, inquiry and dialogue, reflective journaling, poetry and art. This event is for you, especially if you have a longing to interact with the natural world with the playfulness of childhood, want to ease distress and increase hope in the face of our climate crisis, or simply feel like being mindful outside with others. All ages, genders, ethnicities, and abilities are encouraged to participate in this open, accepting space. Come join a journey of healing from the stress of modern life by returning to nature!
