Shoreline Dr. & La Plata
Join us for a golden hour walk on the beach at low tide! Nature connection walks are inspired by the Japanese practice of shinrin yoku, which translates to “forest bathing” (no actual bathing involved!) and is associated with health and well-being. Your guide, Tamara Murray, is certified by the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy.
ALL PROCEEDS TO BENEFIT THE WILDERNESS YOUTH PROJECT
To kick off this season of gratitude and giving, all proceeds from this walk will be donated to the Wilderness Youth Project. They connect kids in the Santa Barbara area to nature in small groups guided by inspired, skilled, and committed mentors and volunteers. Like us, they believe that everyone belongs in nature.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Unlike a hike or a naturalist walk, we’ll give our bodies and brains a break by simply using our senses to experience nature.
- About the practice: After introductions, you’ll learn more about the origins of nature connection and its physical and mental health benefits
- Experience nature using our senses: Tamara will offer a variety of invitations for you to slow down, tap into your senses, and experience this beautiful place
- Moments of sharing and listening: We’ll have moments where we’ll come together and are invited (but never required) to share what we’re noticing
- Tea and a snack: We’ll close with tea and a light snack, as well as have the opportunity to chat as a community
- Welcoming space: Tamara is a firm believer that everyone belongs in nature; she creates a welcoming space for people from all walks of life
