A mindful walking experience in the beautiful surroundings of Tatton Park with a fully qualified and experienced coach. The session will start with an explanation of what mindfulness is and where the practices have come from, and then continue with a guided practice to explore how our minds tend to wander, before moving on to a seated practice to allow the busy mind to ‘settle’ through a deeper awareness of the breath. You will then be guided through a mindful walking experience, where you can explore our wonderful grounds and practice what you have learned.
No experience is necessary and you certainly don’t need to be able to ‘meditate’, ‘sit still’ or ‘clear your mind’! No equipment is necessary, although please come dressed for the weather conditions, as we will be working outdoors wherever possible. If you have a rug, blanket, yoga mat or small stool that you can bring to sit on, this would be helpful but is not essential.
Your guide for the session will be Elanor Kortland, from the Mindful Smile Company, who has been practicing mindfulness for over 15 years and is registered with BAMBA, the British Association of Mindfulness Based Approaches, and who is also a qualified yoga teacher. Park entry on the day of the event is included within the ticket price.
