National Heritage Week – Nature Immersion Workshop
Glor Mill Sustainability Centre, Co. Mayo
Sunday, August 27, 2017
12.00 PM to 1
Glor Mill, Sustainability Centre for Biodiversity Energy Living, Kiltimagh, Co. Mayo
This workshop is set in the beautiful grounds of Glor Mill and offers participants a ‘deep nature’ or ‘nature immersion’ experience through mindfully engaging with the natural world, with the aim of reducing stress and increasing well-being.
The session will consist of a talk followed by a series of guided practices, directed tasks, and free exploration where participants will be invited to use the senses to engage with the natural environment. We will explore how mindful connection with the natural world can be a source of well-being and nourishment that we can integrate into our lives.
Practicing mindfulness and immersing yourself in nature has been shown to help:
– Decrease stress
– Improve health and well-being
– Increase positive emotion
The workshop is run by two mindfulness teachers Barry and Evan.
