Rewilding Wellness (3-part class)

Rewilding simply means “getting back to a natural state.” What happens to our wellbeing when we strip away the expectations, comparisons, and pressures of the outside world? We get down to the roots - we learn to listen to our bodies again. These classes can help you chart your personal path to wellness as YOU define it. This 3-part class at CGS examines physical, mental, and social wellness through a holistic, mindfulness-based framework. Each class is multifaceted and interactive, with this structure: REFLECTION - journaling prompts to get you thinking and focused on the subject. LESSONS on rewilding principles and their impact on the dimension of wellness being covered. DISCUSSION for group processing on lesson material. ACTIVITIES that reinforce the lesson being taught and provide deeper insight. PRACTICES to take home and use to improve your wellbeing for the long-term. This in-person course is perfect for anyone interested in cultivating mind-body connection and building internal and external wellness. In this course, students will: • Understand the dimensions of wellness: physical, mental, social, environmental, creative, and spiritual. • Establish their current state of wellbeing in each dimension and set goals to improve areas they prioritize. • Learn how our biology (genetics, hormones, and base human needs) impacts our physical, mental, and social wellbeing and what to do with this knowledge. • Participate in nature-based activities that demonstrate the importance of play and creativity in improving health. • Practice basic mindfulness techniques that go beyond meditation. • Get to know others with the same goals who can provide mutual support. • Build new habits that support every aspect of their wellbeing.
