The Gettysburg Nature Alliance is inviting individuals to embrace tranquility amidst historical surroundings with their upcoming meditation classes at the Barn at Sachs Bridge. Beginning on April 18th, these sessions will run every Thursday from 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm for six consecutive weeks. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Sachs Bridge and fields, the barn provides an idyllic setting for meditation, whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or new to the practice.
Led by experienced instructor Julie Albert, participants will engage in various techniques including gentle movement, pranayama (breathing practice), and meditative practices such as mindfulness, guided meditation, and loving-kindness meditation. Julie brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the classes, having trained extensively in yoga and meditation disciplines since 2002, and becoming a certified instructor in 2011.
The classes are $7 per session or $30 for all six sessions. However, members of the Gettysburg Nature Alliance can enjoy these sessions for free. Due to limited space, pre-registration is required. Participants are encouraged to bring along water bottles, yoga mats or meditation cushions, blankets, and comfortable attire for the sessions.
Founded in 2019, the Gettysburg Nature Alliance is a non-profit organization committed to the preservation, education, and rehabilitation of Gettysburg’s habitat and heritage. Their mission emphasizes the importance of safeguarding both natural habitats and historical landmarks for future generations to appreciate.
