Experience the turn of the season at the autumnal equinox, on Saturday, Sept. 23, from 5 to 6 p.m. Learn to reflect upon your “inner harvest” time, in the early moment of Fall, with mindfulness facilitator Sandrine Harris. Through a fluid mix of outdoor walking, quiet sitting and guided moments for reflection, you are offered an opportunity to be with the seasonality and energy of this time of year, and of this time in your life.

All adults (18 years and older) are welcome, and no experience with mindfulness or meditation is needed. Please bring a yoga mat or blanket for outdoor sitting in the grass, and wear clothing and shoes suitable for outdoor walking. In the event of rain, this event will take place inside the main building at BBG.
