The Desert Institute is offering a class called “Hike and Heal” designed to address the heavy emotional loads that many of us carry in our lives. Led by Sydney Williams, author of “Hiking My Feelings,” the class will address the ramifications of unresolved traumas followed by a hike through Joshua Tree National Park.
Using her own life as a Type 2 Diabetes patient as an example of how hiking helped her heal, Williams will encourage attendees to unburden themselves by sharing personal stories of pain and struggle. After an initial sharing session, there will be a 6.5-mile moderate hike that includes self-discovery exercises. The class will be held on March 14 starting at 9 am. Sign up by visiting the Desert Institute at joshuatree.org.
