    ✨🪨 Echoes of the Mountain: Sound Bath & Forest Immersion 🌳

    Bull Run Mountains Natural Area Preserve, 17502 Beverley Mill Drive, Broad Run, VA, US

    🪷 COST: There is a fee for this event. Please Register and Pay with this Link!

    🌳 Description:
    Nestled within the serene landscape of Bull Run Mountains Natural Area Preserve, this immersive experience invites you to
    slow down and reconnect with the rhythms of nature.

    ✨ We’ll begin with a gentle forest therapy walk beneath cooling tree cover, allowing the senses to awaken and the body to soften. Along the way, the soothing presence of a nearby stream will guide us into deeper stillness.
    Our journey concludes on sun-warmed rocks near the stream, where you’ll be held in a restorative sound bath. Let the layered tones of bowls and calming chimes blend with the natural soundscape—flowing water, rustling leaves, birdsong—offering a space for rest, reflection, and renewal.
    Come as you are, and allow nature and sound to carry you into ease. 💫

    Meet by the main trailhead sign (near railroad tracks) at 6:20m. We will start at 6:30pm.

    Writing in Nature

    Rust Nature Sanctuary, 802 Childrens Center Road Southwest, Leesburg, VA, US

    Registration required at Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy

    Join Nancy Morgan, Director Emeritus, Georgetown Lombardi Arts and Humanities Program, for this monthly workshop, presented by Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy, to enjoy the combined health benefits of time spent in nature and writing thoughts and feelings. Writing is often considered a solo, reflective practice, but writing in the company of others can be a supportive, community building activity that encourages regular practice. Each session is a stand-alone event – come when you are able. Registration for each session is open through the morning of the workshop.
