Fresno Mindfulness Walks will lead two Saturday morning walks on October 16 and October 23, 2021. Both walks will begin at 9 a,m. at the Fresno State Alumni House (2625 Matoian Way, enter from Shaw and Maple, parking is free on weekends) and then embark on different routes across the University grounds. It’s Fresno State’s Homecoming week and a great chance to experience this gem of a campus in the midst of changing fall colors.

Walks are about 3 miles, at a stroll to medium pace, occasionally on uneven ground, and take about an hour and a half. By walking mindfully and without talking, we will experience the campus in new ways. At the conclusion of the walk, we’ll gather back at the Alumni House and spend a few minutes talking about our walk experience.

Walks are free and you can join one walk or both. Look for the Facebook event to share with your friends. For email notifications, sign up in the yellow bar at the top.

Lucky Leader to Fresno Mindfulness Walks

Fresno Mindfulness Walks are weekly opportunities for people to walk together for a 4 mile route through a different Fresno neighborhood each week. Walkers practice active mindfulness by attending to the sights, sounds, smells, feelings. Walkers do not talk to each other on walks, but we do greet people we meet along the way. The walk location and exact start time are posted just a few days in advance. All walks are free, require no RSVP, and anyone is welcome to join one walk or many. To learn about upcoming walks, you can sign up for a weekly email in the yellow bar at the top of this website and/or LIKE and follow the FMW Facebook page.

To learn about the routine that begins each walk and read some of the resources that have inspired FMW, check out the resources page.

Weekly walks are about 4 miles and take about an hour and a half. Walks are at a medium pace, often on uneven ground, and sometimes take longer than expected because walkers see themselves as curious travelers lingering to observe or going around a different way.
