The peace of sunset at Montour Preserve can bring calm and acceptance.

Riverside Adventure Company is working with Amy Houseknecht to create some paddling opportunities that combine exercise for your body, with exercise for your mind and soul.

Amy Houseknecht - your guide

Arguably, there is no prettier spot in Montour County to observe a SUNSET; than the Montour Preserve.

The sun gives life. Its setting is both a physical and symbolic factor in our lives. Experiencing it from an amazing location and the perspective of being silently on the waters of Lake Chilisquique is unforgettable and powerful. We would like to explore those things with you.

The sun will set on September 9th, 2022 @ 7:26 p.m. At that point in the evening, we will have already had some time to talk, stretch, breathe and maybe even set some intentions. Gratitude and being in the moment is always part of the equation, and Amy has a way of making that happen.

Below, you will find the itinerary and timetable for this event, as well as some words from Amy about what she does, and what she tries to accomplish in her time with folks who are open to stretching, breathing, and practicing mindfulness to fully embrace each day.

From Amy,

”Mindfulness is a self generated energy that supplies us with the space and time we need to create an increased quality of learning and life. Mindfulness enhances the ability to organize tasks, manage time, set priorities, and make decisions. Life does not have to be a struggle to live a present, fulfilling, happy life. Meditation is a practice for achieving these goals. Meditation provides us with tools for navigating this stressful world, while allowing us to deepen our connection with self.

Join me for a guided meditation, breathwork techniques, sound healing; followed by Makko Ho daily renovation stretches which rejuvenate the body, strengthen crucial core body functions, and stimulate blood and lymph circulation. Movement creates improved health and life.

I feel nurtured and peaceful in nature, appreciative of the quiet space it provides us to be, connect, and create; I invite you to share in this space with me. “

“A quiet mind cureth all.” Robert Burton

Love loves through us~

Embracing the planets and stars and our place in the Universe is part of being mindful.
