Update in the time of COVID-19:
All public walks are on hold right now. And, being outdoors is still essential to our health and well-being. The natural forest immune system boosters, like phytoncides, are one of nature's gifts to us.
In most cases, open air spaces, like arboretums, parks and preserves, are still available to us as individuals or families. It's not a time for social gatherings, so that's not what I'm suggesting. If you don't choose to venture out to a public nature area, perhaps you and your family have a backyard, where you can get outdoors safely, say hello to your trees, check in on the Spring plants that are just starting to bloom.
In whatever way feels right to you, please stay in touch with nature during this stressful time.
If going outside isn't available or isn't something you choose to do, that's understandable. So, I've posted a virtual nature experience on my Facebook page for you to take a moment and simply breathe and ground yourself. It's full of my photos and my flute playing, created for those who cannot access the outdoors.

As a life coach, I'm also available on Zoom or over the phone, if anyone wants a support partner. I'm waiving my rates for the next 30 days for anyone who needs to talk.
With love and light,
Linda

Welcome to LI Forest Walks
"The forest is the therapist. The guide opens the door."
"I've walked the forest many, many times in my life, but never like this."
G., Bailey Arboretum, LI "I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed the walk, you and our group last Sunday. It was a wonderful afternoon and I slept great that night. I am so looking forward to another walk with you."
LL., Sands Point Preserve, LI "Thank you Linda for a totally enjoyable day! I received peace, calm and yet energy from the day's walk and "therapy" from the trees. I went home and walked another 2 miles with the dog!!!
Hope to see you again." D., Bayard Cutting Arboretum, NY |

"A Wellness Walk is more than a walk in nature; it's a sacred activism to rebuild a regenerative culture; the kind of culture Indigenous people knew; the kind of culture that perhaps our own ancestors knew. When nature becomes personal again, we will begin to heal ourselves and our relationship with nature. Then, our real work can begin."
