The sessions are free but capacity is limited, so you must register to attend. Participants will meet at Parks Edge, the natural buffer installed along Parkside Avenue between east and west Memorial Hall drives. The program takes place in a nearby grassy area, where Mosley will begin with sound healing using singing bowls to create a meditative environment followed by yoga that focus on stillness and relaxation.
It is recommended to bring a yoga mat or towel to place on the ground, and if you have one, an eye mask or eye pillow is appropriate for the sound healing portion. Children can attend but must be registered and accompanied by a parent or guardian. You must bring your own water, but note there are no nearby restrooms. More information is available on the Fairmount Park Conservancy's event page.
For those who can arrive early, We Walk PHL will hold a group walk before each Wednesday session starting at 5:45 p.m. before the sound healing and yoga begins. Registration is required.
