Sunrise Hike

Description

I’ll be honest with you — I designed this hike because I needed it myself.

There’s something that happens when you’re moving through the outdoors before sunrise. The noise of the day hasn’t started yet. Your body is awake, but your mind hasn’t filled up with everything it usually carries. In that window, something becomes possible that’s hard to access any other way.

The LIVELife Sunrise Hike is a 2–3 hour guided morning experience built on the principles of nature-informed therapy. It’s small on purpose — never more than 6 people — because I want to actually be present with everyone who shows up. This isn’t a fitness hike or a tour. It’s an intentional outdoor experience designed to help you slow down, get grounded, and reconnect with what matters.

Along the trail, I’ll weave in mindfulness cues, grounding practices, and reflection prompts drawn directly from what’s around us. No worksheets. No jargon. Just you, the trail, and a guide who knows how to hold space in the wild.

We close the hike as the sun fully clears the horizon — a brief group reflection that anchors the experience and gives you something to take into the rest of your day.

What’s included: A guided 2–3 hour sunrise hike with Zach Zellner, LPC, CCTP — nature-informed therapy principles woven throughout, a small group of up to 6 participants, and a structured closing reflection at sunrise.

Who this is for: You don’t need to be a hiker. You don’t need to be in therapy. You just need to want something different — a morning that actually resets you instead of one that just passes by. Whether you’re burned out, stuck, or simply looking for more clarity, this hike was built for you.

What to bring: Weather-appropriate clothing, comfortable hiking shoes, a water bottle, and an open mind. Coffee beforehand is strongly encouraged.

Location: Trail details provided upon registration. Green Bay area, Northeast Wisconsin.
