Project Mindfully Outdoors
Welcome to Project Mindfully Outdoors, where the transformative power of nature meets mindful exploration. Founded and hosted by Mike Martin, our podcast serves as a daily compass for those seeking personal growth, healing, and a deeper connection with the natural world. At Project Mindfully Outdoors, we believe that the path to self-discovery often leads through the wilderness. Through carefully crafted episodes, we combine storytelling, guided practices, and wilderness meditation techniques to help our listeners navigate life’s challenging trails with greater awareness and purpose. Our journey began with a simple yet profound understanding: nature holds the key to unlocking our inner potential. Mike Martin, drawing from his extensive experience and personal transformation, shares authentic stories and practical wisdom that bridge the gap between modern living and natural healing. Each episode is thoughtfully designed to provide listeners with actionable tools and insights that can be applied to their daily lives. What sets us apart is our unique approach to personal development. We don’t just talk about nature’s healing power – we guide you through experiential practices that demonstrate it. From mindful hiking techniques to meditation in natural settings, our content empowers listeners to forge their own path toward wellness and self-discovery. Our community consists of individuals from all walks of life who share a common desire to rewrite their life stories through the lens of nature-connected mindfulness. Whether you’re dealing with stress, seeking personal growth, or simply looking to deepen your relationship with the natural world, our daily episodes provide the guidance and support you need. Join us on this transformative journey as we explore the intersection of mindfulness and nature. Through Project Mindfully Outdoors, you’ll discover that the trails we walk aren’t just paths through the wilderness – they’re pathways to profound personal transformation.

334. The impotence of connection (Campfire Session With Page Park)
Wednesday Mar 27, 2024
Wednesday Mar 27, 2024
Only you can create music that is uniquely yours; it's a task no one else can accomplish for you. The collective harmony of each person's individual music contributes to the diversity of our community and the world. Like Cloud, who sang his own melancholic tune, you add to the tapestry of life. He didn't conform to the masses; he blazed his own trail, composed his own melodies, and shared the emotions of his heart. Embracing our true selves transforms life into a magical, unparalleled experience, freeing us from the confines of 'should' and allowing us to simply exist. Page Park, an expert in grief yoga, tapped into the power of yoga and breathwork to find her inner connection. After years of putting others first, she discovered her own way through her personal yoga practice. By integrating yoga asanas, meditation, and maintaining a gratitude journal, she noticed a positive shift in her mindset and a greater ability to navigate life's hurdles. Page applied these practices and the insights from her SoulWork yoga teacher training to develop programs that help others.
