Virtual Nature Walk

Join us on a virtual nature walk! We will start with a 7 minute guided meditation while looking at some beautiful nature scenes. After the meditation, the virtual nature walk will start. Imagine you are walking with us, seeing the same sights and hearing the same sounds. Let the beauty and relaxation of nature wash over you. During the nature walk video, there will be some mindfulness prompts.

Why:

You go out for a nature walk one morning. The sun is starting to peek out over the horizon, and a breeze brushes your face. You’re standing on top of a hill, looking down at the landscape below you. You see green hills, tall trees, and wildflowers amongst the grass. In the distance, you see the water of a creek. You feel so incredibly grateful to be here experiencing this moment. It suddenly dawns on you that we are not all able to do this due to the COVID pandemic. 

We created this virtual nature walk in the summer of 2020 during the COVID pandemic for anyone who was shut-in. For seniors who find it difficult to walk on an uneven nature path, for the physically disabled, and for people with immune issues who did not want to risk going outside for a nature walk. Some people may not have access to a natural area near them. Then there are the health care workers, who are working long hours in a hospital and don’t have the time or energy to go for a nature walk.
