Full Moon Hike + Meditate
Sunday, February 5 @2-4:30pm
Griffith Park, Hollywood
Nurture your connection with inner and outer nature on the Full Moon. Start with about 20 minutes of guided forest bathing, a meditative mindfulness practice, in a vibrant grass clearing. Then, trek uphill to bird's eye views of nature and Hollywood city, pausing for about 20 minutes of guided yogic breathwork and meditation. Loop back to our starting point below for a total hiking time of about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Mileage, between 3-4.5 miles, will depend on our group's pace, without rushing on dirt trails. Guided practices are offered by donation, with energy exchange options here.

Feedback about Our Community Events...
Michelle not only teaches 'yoga', she embodies it fully with her heart and soul. I had the opportunity to join her group on Sunday for a hike and mindful meditation at Franklin Canyon Park. About 30 people showed up, and we all had a blast!

Michelle is the best! ...She is so creative and inspirational. Plus her yoga events and classes around town and in the park are wildly fun.
-Gary L. (Los Angeles, CA)
You gave us (my partner and me) such a positively unforgettable experience at the Root 2 Rise Yoga Fall Gathering (2013).
