Stress Less – Think Like Nature!

Nature is powerful and profound, yet practical. When you Think Like Nature you can discover powerful and profound, yet practical, solutions to personal life challenges.

Those of us living in the “real world” — meaning most of us humans — are constantly bombarded with messages of consumerism, competition, and crises. It can leave us with cognitive dissonance and depression, anger and anxiety. It’s stressful!

Some of us escape the “real world” by spending time in Nature. When we’re there, we can let go a bit.  We might feel grounded and aligned, relaxed and refreshed. But then we have to go back to the “real world” and the stress comes rushing back.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could capture the feelings that you experience in Nature and bring them into the “real world”?  You can — by learning to Think Like Nature. In this 2-hour walking session, we’ll explore how Nature manages stress and then imagine how we might apply these strategies to manage stress in our own lives. Click here to register!

Led by Kendra Callahan, Greenbelt Land Trust, and  Denise DeLuca, owner of Wild Hazel and author of the book Re-Aligning with Nature, Ecological Thinking for Radical Innovation.

Earth Day Bird Walk at CBow Ridge

Celebrate Earth Day a few days early with a fun and relaxed outing to Greenbelt's newest conserved property, CBow Ridge in the Coburg Hills.  Whether you've never tried birdwatching or are an experienced "twitcher" you can enjoy this walk of 1-2 miles on gravel roads and through meadows, with some elevation up and down as we explore this diverse property.

We will have a spotting scope to share and a few pairs of binoculars to borrow. Our walk will be led by Caryn Stoess. Driving time from Corvallis to the meeting spot is about 45 minutes. Click here to register!
