What to expect
During each half-hour Let’s Meditate session, a trained facilitator will lead participants through meditation exercises designed to focus on the breath and quiet the mind. Participants typically sit quietly with their eyes closed throughout the session.
Meditation has been shown to reduce stress and foster increased well-being – mentally, physically, cognitively, and emotionally. Learn more about the many benefits of meditation.

The mental and physical benefits of spending time outdoors have been well documented as have the benefits of meditation and mindfulness. Combining the two, meditating while in nature, provides an especially unique experience for the mind and body, allowing all the senses to participate in the practice.
