(Virtual, but involves time outdoors)
April 24, 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m.
As part of our Earth Month celebration, NM IPL seeks to give space for the grief we all have shared throughout the last year and beyond as we’ve witnessed the effects climate change has had on our beloved New Mexico wilderness.
All ages are invited to join for this day of retreat, processing our grief, and engaging in a spiritual practice of reciprocal healing with the Earth.
We will begin together as a community on Zoom and then you’ll be invited to connect to an outdoor space close to you for solitary reflection before returning back to our virtual community to close. To register for this event, please click here. (Link in full: https://forms.gle/43FTto9LA6zCWmhFA)
