Nature heals, soothes, connects, and restores calling us to receive these good “gifts”. Studies show people are less depressed after going for a walk outside; blood pressure lowers after viewing forest landscapes, and rates of healing increase when facing a window versus a wall. However, we often become disconnected from nature due to work demands, living situations and other barriers. Come explore color and light, texture, and patterns in nature and reconnect as we become “keen observers” of the earth, as poet Mary Oliver said. Session shares several practical nature and poetry projects for exploration and tips to support resident wellness programs and yourself.

EQUIP. ENGAGE. EMPOWER.

When we EQUIP ourselves with information then ENGAGE ourselves in sensory based activities that bring balance before or after a stressful moment,

we then become EMPOWERED.

Moving forward from a place of self-compassion and strength, wellness is cultivated.

Come! Be the navigator of your own life, wellness, and stories!
