Nature Connections – Ravenscraig Park, Kirkcaldy

Join us for a Nature Connection experience at Ravenscraig Park with Jeanne-Marie, as part of Mental Health Awareness Week.

After a short introduction, we will walk five minutes onto the coastal path where Jeanne-Marie will lead you through a series of mindful activities designed to help you connect with nature, reduce stress, and take genuine time out for yourself. Whether you spend a lot of time outdoors or very little, this session is designed to meet you where you are.

The session includes:

A mindful arrival using simple breathing and sensory exercises to help you shift from the busyness of daily life into a more present state. Guided nature awareness through slow walking and stillness, noticing sounds, textures, scents, and light. Optional connection activities including observing a natural element, creative reflection, or quiet contemplation. A relaxed, voluntary sharing circle. And a closing reflection on carrying that sense of calm into everyday life.

The atmosphere is non-judgmental, restorative, and inclusive. You will leave feeling more relaxed, present, and connected.

This event is free and open to unpaid carers across Fife.

Practical information:

Please arrive by 1:20pm. The session runs 1:30pm to 3:00pm. The walk is approximately 1km and terrain may be uneven and muddy, so please wear weather-appropriate clothing and footwear. We kindly ask that no dogs are brought along, so that everyone can fully immerse in the experience.

Meet at the Welcome sign at the park entrance from the car park, off Dysart Road, KY1 2BA.
