Have you ever experienced the calming influence of nature?

On Saturday, October 13th the Wakefield Estate will hold a special event designed to allow visitors to explore some of the estate’s special resources in a new way. During Wakefield Wellness Day, participants will have the opportunity to choose from a variety of activities designed to improve and enhance health and awareness. The activities will include garden yoga, guided mindfulness meditation, labyrinth exploration, “forest bathing” (no swimsuit required!), nature art, and a talk on the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. This event is designed for all ages, and all activities will be easy and require no previous experience. The day kicks-off with an early bird session of garden yoga at 8:00 a.m. for those who want to enjoy the gentle morning light of the estate (bring your mat if you have one), followed by the other activities beginning at 9:00 a.m. The garden yoga session will be offered again at a later time and each activity will be offered twice except for the talk about the Camino, which will be offered once at 11:15 a.m.
