May 2024 Dipsea Trail Wellness Hike and Discussion

Saturday, May 18th, 2024

Law practice can be grueling. The work can be intense, and the hours, long. Stress is inevitable, but with a systematic and comprehensive wellness program, with regular hiking as the foundation, manageable.

The Dipsea Trail is a moderate 10-mile hike, starting and ending in Stinson Beach. Hike details are found here: https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/california/dipsea-trail--2.

We will discuss practical strategies for managing mental health, stress, and overall well-being that are tailored to the legal profession, focusing on physical and professional health. Hiking and other structured social exercise activities, engaged in regularly and with intention, can form the foundation for a positive work-life balance, increase self-awareness and self-regulation, protect against attorney stress, and stimulate creativity and initiative both inside and outside a law practice.

At the end of the hike, we will have lunch at Parkside Café. Program materials will be distributed to participants.

Essential Information: Please bring water (at least 40 fluid ounces), snacks, good hiking shoes/boots, hat, sunblock, and long pants. Walking sticks are optional for this hike. Hiking can be a rigorous activity, with injury possible. By signing up, you understand and acknowledge the foregoing.
