Autumn Equinox Nature Meditation - Monday, September 14th, 2026, 11:00am - 12:00pm at Leon Levy Preserve

Celebrate the arrival of Autumn with a restorative, guided nature meditation at Leon Levy Preserve.

We come together to celebrate the changing seasons, when day and night share equal time in balance and harmony. It's a time for us to reflect on balance in our own lives and give thanks for nature's harvest. We will meet at Old Field Preserve in Waccabuc to share a seated meditation in LLT’s Meditation Garden. Dedicating focus to each of the five senses, especially while outdoors, will help participants unify and balance their energy with the natural world.

This program is led by Catherine Downs, a Reiki Master Teacher and a certified Forest Therapy Guide from ANFT. This program is limited to 20 attendees. We recommend sturdy shoes, appropriate layers, and water. Attendees should also bring something to sit on — a blanket, cushion, beach chair, camp chair — and perhaps a hat (or any other props) for additional comfort during the seated meditation. Steady rain or other inclement weather will cancel.
