 est bathing\, a fire ceremony and sound bath. \n\n\n\nThis special event

  connect with yourself\, the elements and nature\, we learn how the the Mo

 age with the sights\, sounds and smells through mindful walking and moveme
 nt\, breathing and sound meditations\; opening our awareness and culminati
 ng in a tea ceremony with a freshly brewed tea symbolic of Beltane.\n\nBel
 tane is the cross-quarter festival marking the midway point between the sp
 ring equinox and the summer solstice. Beltane signifies the height of spri
 ng and the very beginning of summer. The name Beltane means “bright fire
 ” and references the Celtic god of fire\, Belanus. A symbol of warmth\, 
 light\, increasing energy\, and purification\, fire is the chosen symbol o
 f Beltane to honor the growing life\, light\, and warmth present in the na
 tural world. Walk with us and be inspired by the sight of the world waking
  up around you and coming into bloom. During our walk together\, we’ll t
 ake time to notice the wonders of nature and the light around us to help u
 s enter this season with greater attention and intention. Bring an open he
 art.\n\nThe energy of Beltane is vibrant and fresh. In this session we ali
 gn ourselves with the growth we see around us\; the new buds emerging\, bi
 rds singing\, bees\, butterflies... and explore what makes us feel truly a
 live? What energizes and inspires us?\n\nMonica Mendoza is a certified Nat
 ure and Forest Therapy Guide with the Association of Nature and Forest The
