Location: Reynolda House Museum of American Art
Cost: $15; Free for Members and WFU
ON SALE FEBRUARY 6
In this workshop, we’ll explore a few mindfulness practices in the natural world. From a slow, walking meditation to forest bathing (a Japanese practice that is not about bathing, but rather “absorbing the atmosphere of the forest”), we will spend time on the grounds at Reynolda slowing down and listening to the natural world and how it can help ground us.
The Reverend Timothy L. Auman, Ph.D., MDiv, chaplain at Wake Forest University and founder and director of the MindfulWake initiative will join Julia Hood, director of teaching and learning at Reynolda House, to lead these workshops.
