Connect with yourself. Connect in nature. Connect with others.

Who it is for

Whether you’re navigating life changes, feeling disconnected or simply seeking greater self-understanding, this program offers a space to explore, reflect and connect. No previous mindfulness or group experience is needed; you should be comfortable walking for around 30–45 minutes.

What happens

Each Wednesday we spend 60 minutes in Centennial Park with guided walking, mindfulness, meditation and practical learning, followed by 30 minutes of relaxed café conversation and between-session tools.

Discover what’s possible

Sometimes meaningful change begins by slowing down, stepping into nature and connecting with others. Through guided reflection, mindful movement and shared conversations, you’ll have the opportunity to:

  • Understand yourself and your relationship patterns more deeply.
  • Develop greater emotional awareness and resilience.
  • Build authentic connections with like-minded people.
  • Learn practical tools to work with between sessions.

More than a walking group — an opportunity to reconnect, reflect and grow.
