NightWalk in the Summer Taos Desert

August 22-23, 2025
Taos, New Mexico
Facilitated by Katie Raver

Join us under the wide skies and twinkling stars for NightWalk in the Taos Summer Desert—an immersive, in-person experience designed to reconnect you with your senses, the natural world all around you, and your own inner calm.

This class blends nature, light walking, attention, and gentle exploration to help you reset from the noise of everyday life. Expect to feel deeply present, creatively refreshed, and surprisingly grounded. It’s like a retreat and a training all in one.

Our time together includes a guided night walk, a noon meditation in nature, and inner techniques you can bring home with you—whether you're a teacher, a leader, or simply someone who wants to feel more connected and awake.

🌵 What to Expect

  • A nature-centered NightWalk under the stars - without artificial light

  • Guided practices for attention, awareness, and mindset

  • Optional noon meditation in nature

  • Group connection and solo reflection time

  • Tools you can take home to shift your state anytime

This experience will be both indoors and outdoors, with short periods of sitting, walking, and standing. No special physical skills are required, just an openness to being present.
