Sharing some good vibes from our adventure to the coast on World Ocean Day last week…
Pawsitive Ripples Effect Project is a nonprofit established to combine work with youth impacted by trauma, nature, and animals to build life skills, improve stability, and create opportunities for healing connections.
As the Founders, we believe strongly that time spent around nature & animals is incredibly impactful on healing journeys & our overall wellbeing. Just to name a few benefits we see: time spent in the ocean breeze is calming, helps us focus & be more in the present moment, cuts stress, creates connection to the world around us, & is incredibly fun. We love it! One goal of our program is to lean into the impact people have on the nature spaces and animals that positively impact us.
On World Ocean Day we gave back to the ocean environment that brings us so much joy by cleaning up trash from Siletz Bay & Pacific City beaches. We learned about tides & sea life at the science center. We enjoyed taking in the waves, playing on the beach, & returned to Vancouver feeling rejuvenated.
We hope you all have the opportunity to enjoy time by the ocean (or your favorite nature spot) soon too!
