Do you struggle making time for a workout in your day? When you’re exercising, how do you encourage yourself? Do you wish you had others to move with?

In this online movement event, join your peers for a walk or run, apply the science from Part 1, build resilience, and deepen your joy. We will implement mindful and compassionate movement to support you and your life. This is a non-judgmental and intentional space where you can identify your movement needs and tailor the level of intensity of your practice to support your overall wellness.

We will begin by sharing a bit about who we are, discuss evidence-based tools, and practice a short mindfulness exercise to kickstart our run. After a 20–30-minute movement practice, we will check out together online to discuss how our movement impacted our bodies, emotions, minds, and spirits. 

Learning Objectives:

  • Implement research supporting mental health and movement
  • Practice intentional running or walking tailored to mental health
  • Create a supportive space to build long term movement habits
  • Build connection and community between the participants
