A tenured associate professor of humanities for the University of Alaska Southeast, Teague Whalen is also a practitioner and teacher of meditation, tai chi, and chi gong. Teague invites anyone who would like to have an authentic, small-group (1-7 people), local experience within the rural rain-forest of Southeast Alaska, to join him on a mindful, meditative trek outdoors. The base will be a couple-mile walk through the rain-forest canopy, on a trail where no other tours are except locals, where we will arrive on an undeveloped beach. Join Teague on his trek and explore mindfulness through practicing how to be more present while walking, talking, listening, and sightseeing. Connect together with the environment while doing tai chi on a beautiful and undisturbed ocean beach. Or jump-start that writing you've always wanted to do while exploring the unique setting of Southeast Alaska's rain forest with Teague's original creative-writing mini-text and writing exercises!
