Getting out to your local park and taking some time to be mindful is a great way to support your mental health. We host several programs throughout the year to support mindfulness at Indy Parks.
Check out some of these upcoming programs that center around mindfulness and reflection:
Nature Journaling at Holliday Park
Learn to observe the natural world around you with nature journaling, the practice of drawing and writing in response to observations in nature. Each month, join a naturalist out in the park to observe the natural world around you and deepen your understanding of nature while practicing mindfulness. Every month will have a different nature theme for participants to explore. Participants will receive a journal and will get to choose what medium works best for them. Participants are also welcome to bring their own art supplies and journals.
Saturdays, 10 – 11:30AM | $7/Person | Pre-registration required
