What a magical day in nature
Journaling, observing, and slowing down with the incredible Liese Murphree, Director of Education & Outreach at the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History, followed by nature-inspired movement led by our amazing teacher Cambell Walker.
A beautiful reminder of how art, nature, and movement come together to nourish the soul.
