The Trail of Life invites us to tune into our inner wilderness, where we pause amidst the twists and turns to contemplate our journey, appreciate the lessons learned, and align with the path that resonates with our most authentic selves.

🧭 Guided Self-Discovery

You’ve read the book, now you’re ready to do the work - where do we start?

This isn’t a pre-recorded program, we facilitate our workshops LIVE! By starting with our foundational healing activity - creating our Trail of Life Maps - we draw inspiration from your life story to bring you home to yourself, visualize the life you want to live, and walk with you as you put one foot in front of the other in the direction of your dreams. By the way, every workshop features an interactive activity rooted in self-reflection, bonus mindfulness practices and resources (guided meditations, interviews with experts, book recommendations), journal prompts, as well as space to reflect on your hikes. PS If you can’t make it to the live meeting, you’ll have access to the instructional video.

🧭 Hiking as a Mindfulness Practice

In each workshop, we give you a prompt to meditate on while you’re hiking solo, or to talk about in your group if you’re hiking with other members in the program. We encourage participants to go for a hike once per week to reflect on the lessons learned in the program. By the time the program has wrapped up, you will have developed a regular hiking + mindfulness practice and reaping the rewards of your efforts. By the way, you pick your hikes based on what you’re comfortable with, there is no mileage or difficulty requirement.

🧭 Community Connection

We’re all coming to the table with our own lived experiences and filters through which we see life, but one thing is for certain - we are more alike than we are different. By learning how to hold space for your fellow program participants, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to practice active listening and learn from each other.

When we slow down enough to hear what people are saying and give space for processing the information and understanding the messenger, we can oftentimes find some of our stories in the stories of others. This deepens our connection to self - affirming that we are not alone in our experiences - as well as our connection to each other.

Note: all of our workshops are hosted LIVE via Zoom. If you want to listen in and hike while we meet, you are welcome to but it is not required. The hiking portion of the program is on your own time, at your own pace. 💚
