Saturday, January 9, 2027 | 12:00–1:30 PM
Location: Roosevelt Park, Edison, NJ
Investment: $30 per person
For women ages 18+
Winter invites us to slow down, notice what is around us, and reconnect with ourselves in a different way.
Join me for a winter edition of Reflect & Wander, a guided mindfulness experience that combines gentle walking, nature-based practices, sensory awareness, and reflection. Together, we'll explore how we can return to the present moment, even when our minds feel busy or life feels overwhelming.
During our time together, we'll practice mindful walking, explore a Nature Anchor to help bring our attention back to the present, and make space to notice and connect with the natural world around us. We'll incorporate brief pauses for reflection and connection along the way.
This is not about how far we walk or how quickly we get there. We'll walk at the pace of the slowest walker, with the route and distance adjusted to the group's pace, weather, and path conditions.
What to expect:
A welcoming, small-group experience for women
Guided mindfulness and nature-based practices
Gentle walking with opportunities to pause and reflect
Time to reconnect with yourself and the natural world
A flexible route designed with the group's comfort and safety in mind
Duration: Approximately 90 minutes. The actual end time may vary depending on the group's pace, path conditions, and time spent on mindfulness practices and reflection. Please allow some flexibility in your schedule.
Location & weather: We'll meet at Roosevelt Park in Edison, NJ. The exact meeting spot and additional preparation details will be shared before the event. The route, location, or duration may be adjusted based on conditions. If the weather or paths are unsafe, the event may be canceled and rescheduled.
Winter preparation: Participants are responsible for dressing appropriately for cold weather and bringing suitable footwear and other required items. Please review the Winter Preparation Guide (sent via email after registering) before attending.
Registration is nonrefundable. If I need to cancel due to unsafe conditions, the event will be rescheduled according to the Winter Weather, Safety & Registration Policy.
Come as you are, move at a comfortable pace, and give yourself permission to slow down. The goal isn't to cover distance; it's to create space for mindfulness and connection.
