Connect with Nature for Mind and Body

In the hustle and bustle of modern life, finding moments of tranquility can seem like an elusive dream. However, nestled within the serene landscapes of Bentsen-Rio Grande Valley State Park lies an opportunity to reconnect with both nature and yourself.

On Thursday, May 23, 2024, from 8:30 AM to 9:30 AM, embark on a journey of self-discovery through the Wild Wellness program. Led by experienced guides, this event offers a unique blend of exercise and meditation amidst the lush greenery of the park.

The essence of Wild Wellness lies in its holistic approach to well-being. Participants will have the chance to delve into the practices of yoga, meditation, and forest bathing, all designed to foster a deeper connection with the natural world.

Research has shown that exercising in nature can have profound effects on both mental and physical health. From reducing stress and anxiety to boosting mood and energy levels, the benefits are plentiful. By immersing yourself in the sights, sounds, and scents of the park, you’ll not only rejuvenate your body but also nourish your soul.
