Meditación deambulante: bilingüe en español e inglés // Meandering Meditation: bilingual in Spanish and English

La naturaleza tiene el poder de evocar la tranquilidad y la belleza cuando conseguimos alejarnos de nuestras ajetreadas vidas.  Esta experiencia de inmersión en el Arnold Arboretum dura dos horas y media e invita a los participantes a pasearse por el Arboretum, deteniéndose para praticar varias experiencias guiadas de conciencia plena con el fin de profundizar la conexión con el mundo natural.  Esta experiencia será guiada y haran algunos periodos de silencio. No es necesario tener experiencia con la conciencia plena o con la meditación.

El facilitador Bob Linscott es un profesor certificado en la Reducción del Estrés Basada en la Conciencia Plena (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) de la Universidad de Brown y del Centro para la Conciencia Plena (Center for Mindfulness) del UMASS Memorial Health Care.

Nature has the power to evoke calm and beauty when we can step out of our hectic lives. This immersive experience in the Arnold Arboretum will invite participants to meander through the landscape, stopping for several guided mindfulness practices to deepen their connection with the natural world. This will be a guided experience with some periods of silence. No experience with mindfulness or meditation necessary.

Directions

Learn about accessibility at the Arboretum.

in front of the Hunnewell Building

By subway

Take the MBTA Orange Line to its southern end—Forest Hills. Exit through the door marked “Arnold Arboretum,” cross Washington Street, and walk up Arborway to the Arboretum’s Forest Hills Gate on your left. To reach the Arboretum’s Arborway Gate and the Hunnewell Building, continue along the sidewalk on the Arborway to the Arborway Gate (about 12 minutes), or go through the gate, bear right at the pond, and continue to the Hunnewell Building, which will be on your left.

By bus

Take the #39 bus to the South Street @ Bardwell Street stop in Jamaica Plain. Walk down South Street away from Bardwell Street, take a right on Custer Street, and walk down Custer Street until it ends. Turn right and walk about 300 feet down Arborway to the Arboretum’s Arborway Gate, which will be across the street. The Hunnewell Building is just inside the gate on your right.

By car

There is public street parking on Arborway, including six designated accessible spots on either side of the gate. Parking on Arborway can sometimes fill up and you may need to walk a little ways from your parking spot to the gate. Please allow for extra time to account for this, especially during the spring and for large programs like lectures and performances.
