March 10th, 2024
As part of the Wellbeing Happenings, an experiential activity was organized by Wellbeingr on Sunday, March 10, 2024, from 11:00 to 13:00 in the Aesthetic Forest of Kaisariani, just 15 minutes from the center of Athens.
Physical activity and movement in the environment of the serene forest and the fresh air helped the participants increase their energy levels, both physically and mentally. This experience acted as a natural overall "reboot", a kind of "restart" and restoration of the body that we all need at the end of winter. At the same time, it was a nice opportunity to explore the beauties of the forest of Kaisariani.
The escapade started with Isabelle Razis, co-founder of Wellbeingr, gently encouraging the members of the team to raise their pulses by pacing up the forest path to Kalopoula for about 20 minutes. The group was then led down the road to the Monastery of Kaisariani before ending up in the Forest Botanical Garden for some standing yoga exercises and a few minutes of mindfulness practice, which helped to recover and cultivate each one’s hidden inner strength in order to face the challenges of everyday life.
After this beneficial break, a hot drink and a healthy snack were offered around the Taxiarchon Monastery, while there was also time to enjoy the impressive view of Athens and even the sea further away.
Before taking the downhill path back, the next stop at the hidden “Hole Church” positively surprised the group and was the occasion to renew the established appointment for the next Wellbeing Happening!
