Welcome! Beat the Blues exists to provide nature hikes, campfire gatherings, weekend adventures, group travel, & other unique events for those who want to have new experiences and meet similar positive minded people doing the same.
I’m Michael. A few years back I found myself feeling isolated & trapped indoors during the pandemic while suffering the blow of a significant relationship end. Taking extreme accountability, I decided to take a hard look at myself and the direction of my life. I quickly became passionate about meditation, fitness, personal growth, and other wellness practices. As a result, I discovered the importance of nature for my wellbeing, as well as pushing the limits of my comfort zone. This has led to interests in primitive camping, backpacking, and traveling to serene locations all over the country.
My desire is to bring people together to live fearlessly and authentic. We will provide fun & adventurous activities that push self-limitations, promote mindfulness, and bring us in touch with our true selves in order to raise our vibe for the greatest good. So, if you're feeling apprehensive about joining us, rest assured you will meet a wonderful, welcoming group of diversified participants that will quickly make you feel right at home!
Please join our community initiative of beating the blues and raising inner wellness at our next event or message me with any questions you may have!
Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Vegan Brunch at The Zenith and River Walk AfterwardsThe Zenith, Pittsburgh, PA
As this is a small gathering, please, if you sign up, show up.
If you must cancel, change your reservation as soon as you know so that someone else will have the opportunity to attend.The restaurant has been closed for several of the Sundays in August and September - I think they might be moving toward catering events there. Anyway, as far I can tell they will be open next Sunday.
Now - If you’ve never eaten at The Zenith, you're missing out on a Pittsburgh treasure.
The Zenith – Vegetarian restaurant and antique/vintage store (zenithpgh.com)
Run by the same family for many years, it’s a restaurant inside a vintage store, where everything is for sale and the delicious healthy all-you-can-eat vegan buffet will leave you stuffed but not feeling guilty. You get an entree, coffee or tea, plus the buffet (which includes a variety of home-made cakes) all for only $13 CASH.
Afterwards we'll walk to the Highline by 4th street then turn down to the river trail for the way back (about 3.5 miles total).
I’ve always found free street parking within a one block radius of the restaurant.
Meet up inside at the couches a little early so we can get on the list then all get seated together.
OK, see you there!
