Begin your final morning of the Living Arts Gathering immersed in nature as we venture to the top of Warm Springs Mountain during the quiet hours before dawn. This gentle expedition will begin in darkness, allowing us to move in stillness and anticipation toward the ridgeline. As the sky begins to shift, we’ll arrive at our summit for a guided meditation timed with the rising sun—an invitation to greet the new day with presence, gratitude, and quiet wonder.

Led by Austin Sarner, this journey weaves the purposeful movement of hiking with the inward stillness of meditation, creating a shared space for renewal and reflection. After our sunrise sit, we’ll make our way back down the mountain, carrying the spaciousness of the morning into the day ahead.

This experience is open to all—seasoned hikers and first-time meditators alike.
