Walking Meditation in Exeter

Step away from the noise of everyday life and reconnect with yourself in the peaceful beauty of the forest.

Join us for a gentle walking meditation through the beautiful trails of Henderson-Swasey Town Forest in Exeter, NH. This is not a hike or a fitness walk—it’s an opportunity to slow down, breathe deeply, and experience nature with greater awareness.

We’ll be meeting early to enjoy the cool morning air and beat the summer heat, making for a more peaceful and comfortable experience in the woods.

Our experience begins the moment we step onto the trail. From our meeting point, we’ll take a short, easy walk together into the forest before beginning our guided meditation practice. As we move at a relaxed pace, we’ll pause several times for mindful breathing, guided meditation, and quiet reflection. The forest has a way of helping us settle our minds, open our hearts, and remember what truly matters.

During our time together, you’ll enjoy:
• A gentle 1.5–2 mile walk on mostly flat, wooded trails (including the short walk from the parking area)
• Guided mindfulness and meditation
• Periods of peaceful silence
• Breathwork and reflection
• Time to reconnect with nature—and yourself

The trails are easy and suitable for most fitness levels. Please wear comfortable walking shoes, bring water, and consider bug spray if needed.

Meeting Location: Oaklands Town Forest Parking Area
Address: 34 Newfields Road, Exeter, NH

We’ll gather in the parking lot before beginning our walk together into Henderson-Swasey Town Forest via the pedestrian tunnel under Route 101. Please plan to arrive 10–15 minutes early so we can begin on time.

Whether you’re new to meditation or have an established practice, you’ll leave feeling calmer, more grounded, and refreshed.

Come walk slowly. Breathe deeply. Listen to the wisdom of the forest. I look forward to sharing this peaceful experience with you.
