Join Nordic Northwest for a mindful winter walk in the woods of Nordic Northwest.
Hear about Nordic traditions and perspectives on winter, including the concept of friluftsliv – the love of the outdoors. Search to catch sight of tomten and fairy houses in the woods and create your own nature journal using foraged twigs from your walk.
The middle of winter can be a still and quiet time to reflect or a stormy icey scramble for warmth. Whatever the day brings embrace in true Nordic fashion by going outside to enjoy and observe, then getting cozy inside to share and create. On the winter walk, take in the beautiful line art of all the bare branches and collect twigs and bark to bind your own nature journal. Listen and look for evidence in the woods of the magical Nordic tomten, nisse, and elves, then take time to write, draw, and collage in the warmth of the Great Hall.
