Saturday February 19th; 9am-5pm
Sunday February 20th; 9am-5pm
Please arrive by 8:45am and be prepared to start at 9am.
Where: Linne Doran is located about fifteen minutes outside of Duvall in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. You can find a map and driving directions here.
What to Expect: We will be spending significant time outside regardless of the weather. We encourage you to be prepared for all types of weather and bring several layers (to stay warm and dry) so that you can be comfortable throughout the class.
As this program is about unplugging, we will ask people to turn off their devices during class time.
We also recommend that you plan for spaciousness and self-care prior to and during the weekend. This class will cover a variety of core practices of deep nature connection, along with experiential exercises and awareness building tools that are key to emotional and social resilience. This class is a deep dive into connecting with ourselves and others. Please note that share and vulnerability is built into the curriculum of this program.
