Hike + Heal Sequoia National Park is a Wilderness Wellness retreat facilitated by Hiking My Feelings in partnership with the Field Institute at Sequoia National Park, Sequoia Parks Conservancy, and Volunteers In Parks (VIP) Program. Inspired by Sydney’s life-changing journey in the outdoors, this event series infuses healing and intention into every activity we do. This isn’t a healing retreat in that we tell you how to heal - we create a space where healing is possible. We offer resources that can transform any experience into a learning opportunity and set the stage for good energy & supportive vibes.
This is a space where you can laugh, cry, relax, tap into your creativity, challenge yourself, and enjoy the rewards as a collective.
