Join author and founding director of the Kripalu School of Mindful Outdoor Leadership, Micah Mortali, on Thursday, July 18, from 9 a.m. to noon, for mindful immersion in the beauty of the Berkshire Botanical Garden. Explore mindfulness as a simple, yet powerful tool for unplugging from the stress and overstimulation of our day-to-day lives and stepping into the restorative wonder of the “more than human world.” In this guided workshop, Micah will offer nature meditations, mindful movement, and time to notice, appreciate and connect with the spirit of place. Leave feeling renewed, refreshed and re-connected. All levels are welcome. No previous meditation experience needed.
