Trails Preservation Volunteer Group of Southern California was started to help maintain and repair hiking trails throughout Southern California.  Since September 2011, we have been serving Riverside, San Diego, San Bernardino, LA and Orange Counties.  It was established due to poor conditions and lack of maintenance of our most coveted nature trails which surround our cities. Our volunteers should be relatively in good shape since our meet up actvities consist of hiking up trails, and other type …

About Mindfulness Exercises: The practice of self regulation of the autonomic nervous system. We teach integrated mind-body mental exercises to trigger a natural parasympathetic response in the autonomic nervous system. This response releases powerful neurochemicals (biochemicals) that regulate the immune system. Regulation of the immune system transforms the human body at the cellular level. This natural transformation affects our view, how we feel, and ultimately our perception of reality, it …

Welcome to the “Around the Samovar” group of tea lovers. “The Samovar is one of the most special ways to prepare tea I think. It’s fiery smoke ads to the flavor of the tea. The steam, smoke and simmer remind of an old, but not forgotten time where social life had a higher value in society than today. It brings people together in peace, like Hot Springs or camp fires do.” says Harald Kanz This open group is aimed for people with interest in the historic ways of tea making using Samovars, to enjoy …

This group is for people who love to trail run but would also appreciate some company on some of those runs! I know I personally feel much more energized on trail runs versus pavement runs, not to mention the scenery is usually much better too! I took over as organizer of this group in May 2012.  I am new to trail running, and find it a great way to exercise, experience nature, and get away from the rat race for a bit!  I'm looking forward to meeting like-minded folks who are up for some adventu …
