Patch’s 20 acres of forest, lagoons, lotus ponds, butterflies, and ancient old-growth forest are just the “Nature Pill” prescription to help you escape, energize and ease your mind, body and soul back to Earth.
For our final February “Month of Love” event, we invite you to enjoy and experience Nature-based mindfulness, embodied somatic movement, journaling and sound, as we explore the ancient practice of “maitri”, which is about friendliness, and the deep dive into “metta”, which is lovingkindness.
“You are perfect just as you are…and there is always room for improvement”
Shunryun Suzuki, Zen monk, author, “Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind”
Taking our cue for the day from the bold teachings of this groundbreaking Zen master, we will begin again, looking deeply at how we view ourselves. More often than not, we are our own most harsh judge. Often that voice inside comes to rule our inner landscape, yet with the simple, yet profound act of changing our mind, we can “tend & befriend” ourselves, we can see with fresh eyes of the open heartedness of a Beginner’s Mind our always present inner perfection. And we can allow ourselves and support ourselves to walk with greater ease in the constantly changing, impermanent, non-fixed fascinating journey of being human.
The day includes:
Lite Bite Breakfast
Intention Setting or SanKalpa Ceremony
Guided Nature Walk to Lotus Lagoon
Contemplative Journaling “Magic Spot” Practice
Movement Exploration “Beyond Yoga”
