Locations
We can work in a location that is meaningful to you, or choose one of the sites I'm already familiar with. Each one is different and offers unique advantages and challenges. Here are some examples:
Mystic Vale at the University of Victoria
If we are lucky we might hear some owls hooting above us. The Mystic Vale is a forested ravine, with a creek running down, sometimes dry and sometimes with water flowing through it. Please note that the path is dirt, more rugged and often bumpy and full of roots. Street parking is available off Hobbs St. This location does not have washrooms.
Mt. Tolmie
Meet at the top or make the climb part of the process. Mt. Tolmie offers views of Mt. Baker and the Olympic Mountains and can put us in touch with our embodied sense of our expansiveness. Gravel path as well as rocky and uneven, hilly terrain in this natural Garry Oak meadow. Portable washroom available.
