The Path to Presence: a Mindfulness Walk and the Art of Creative Writing Retreat

Carol Marcy, Poet and Forest Bathing Guide, for a very special fall retreat. Quietly, slowly walking, drinking in the beautiful surroundings of Sylvan Gardens, connecting through heart centered awareness and focused attention, you will have the opportunity to gather your deepening experiences of the natural world, like precious beads, to string on an extravagant necklace, using this collection to write a poem, a song or some beautiful prose.

Come join for a peaceful, inspirational retreat on a beautiful day, in a beautiful place surrounding yourselves with love and support for being at your creative best. Time will be given to write and if you choose, to share what you’ve written, in a caring and attentive environment.

Participants will need to bring pen and notebook. We will be sitting on benches or the ground to write. No prior knowledge is required, just the ability to walk slowly with writing breaks for less than a mile.

We will meet at the entrance to Sylvan Gardens 86 Old Main St. in Chatham.

Preregistration is required.
