About This Walk

Share a moment of deep connection with our living world and discover an awe-inspiring story: from Earth's beginnings to the wonder of present moment. No geological knowledge required and all are welcome. A Deep Time Walk is a walking meditation which invites us all to re-member ourselves as part of our planet's story. It can be a powerful emotional experience, as we witness the long evolutionary journey that life has been on. In light of this, there is a facilitated reflective aspect to the walk with opportunities to reflect on how these insights are affecting us. You will be invited to capture thoughts and feelings with some creative writing prompts, or you may want to just quietly reflect. At the end of the walk, we will arrive back at the present day and explore what it feels like to be alive in today's world. There will be a light-touch opportunity to share with the group, if and however this feels comfortable.

Passionate about sharing the love for our planet Earth, I offer a variety of geology-themed walks in and around Bristol in the South West of England, through my organisation Steps in Stone. I love the Deep Time Walk for how it connects us with the beauty of our world, the wonder of our evoluntionary journey, and the urgency with which need to act in service to our home. I offer walks public walks, and bespoke events for community groups, businesses, universities and schools.

Walk. Act. Experience.
