Slowing Down in Nature: Mindfulness and Nature Journaling

Join OC Parks staff and volunteers to observe the sights, sounds and smells of nature in a new way. During this unique program we will combine nature journaling with an intimate nature walk led by a certified nature and forest therapy guide. Nature journaling is a wonderful tool to make observations and create lasting memories, and our mindfulness walk will invite you to explore your own connection with nature.

For the nature journaling portion of this program, please bring a nature journal and your own art materials such as pencils, pens, or watercolors. A portable chair is recommended along with sun protection, water and snacks. Be prepared to move along the trail a short distance and sit to document the beauty around you.

Please note that this is a slow-paced program that is geared for ages 14 and up. No experience necessary! We will begin outside of the Peter and Mary Muth Interpretive Center. The program and parking are free.

Advance registration required. Rain or adverse weather will cancel the program.
