Our modern lifestyle can be so rushed and stressful as we strive to deal with a multitude of daily problems at work, home and in our domestic relationships. All too often there is just too little time for ourselves. We often rush straight back into the fray without being recharged ….. and on it goes.

Take a break……. a slow break, giving you the time to enjoy a walk, to interact with the world around you and the people you are with. Use your senses to enjoy and connect with your surroundings and understand the value of a walk in our beautiful countryside. Enjoy the wildlife and natural beauty all around us, and come to appreciate the inner smile a simple walk can deliver. Discover this special sense and much more on this unique weekend walking break staying in the Braziers community and house in the beautiful Chilterns.

During this Active Learning weekend you will enjoy beautiful walks and precious moments, appreciate the trees and plants around us, hear the birds and feel the breeze that wafts the grass into ripples. You can let nature touch you and feel its unhurried beauty and peacefulness. Feel the sense of calm it gives us if we give it time.

Over the weekend we will informally interact with the Braziers community and explore how our walks have impacted upon our self and on our senses. No theoretical lectures or talks, just plain and simple enjoyable companionship and social interaction and as is the community way share the chores. If the weather is fine perhaps a glass of wine around a camp fire or if not around the log fire in the Manor House. We will encourage poetry, readings, creative writing, art and discussion to develop the senses stirred by our walks and our being part of the Braziers community.

Our aim is to deliver great walks of six to eight miles at a pace that can be enjoyed and positive, personal physical and mental outcomes to help you deal with the multiplicity of issues arising from our hectic modern lifestyles.
