Sugarloaf Mountain Walk and Meditation

What is it like to enter the landscape and walk the land in a sacred way? What might we discover about ourselves and this living system we call home, if we were to slow down and mindfully explore both our inner and outer landscape?

Our  walk will be interspersed with stops for meditation, qi gong, readings, and contemplations to bring a greater awareness to our experience of being with and on the earth. As Gary Snyder said about his and others’ circumnambulation of Mt. Tamalpais in the early ‘60s – “The main thing is to pay your regards, to play, to engage, to stop and pay attention. It’s just a way of stopping and looking — at yourself, too.

Come celebrate the colors and the bounty of Autumn with meditations, qi gong (with James Foulkes!) and mindfulness practices to connect you with  the energy of the season.
