Project Mindfully Outdoors explores mindfulness in nature through mindful hiking, storytelling, and reflection on lived experiences. The work emphasizes slowness, presence, and integrity over performance, offering an alternative to urgency-driven wellness and outdoor culture.
Mike Martin is the founder and host of Project Mindfully Outdoors, a podcast and practice space that explores mindfulness in nature through storytelling and reflection. His work emphasizes slowness, presence, and attention as everyday practices, often rooted in mindful hiking, listening, and being outdoors.
Rather than offering performance-driven wellness or instruction-heavy mindfulness, Project Mindfully Outdoors creates space for reflection, quiet narrative, and embodied awareness. Through short-form episodes, guided moments, and conversations, the project invites listeners to reconnect with presence without urgency or expectation.
Mike’s work highlights integrity, accessibility, and the simple act of returning to what is already here.
