Calendar of Events

We’ve heard your valuable feedback, and now you don’t have to hear us! Beginning May 4, 2021, the period between 8 and 10 a.m. on the first Tuesday morning of every month will be reserved for “Meditative Mornings,” a pause for quiet time in our gardens and on our trails. During this time, our working garden crew will abstain from using leaf blowers, mowers and other equipment so you can be sure to enjoy the sounds of birds and the wind in the trees.

Take advantage of half-price parking on the first Tuesday of every month and come out to the Arboretum to enjoy a Meditative Morning!

Please bring folding chair, snacks if preferred.
We’ll start with basics of meditation and meditation practice.
Following, we’ll have a more in-depth discussion with the goal of developing greater self-awareness. We’ll have a variety of topics to choose from. Meet at 711 South Grove St. Ste B, Hendersonville (WNC Functional Health)

We gather on Tuesday evenings to share a dharma teaching, meditate for 20 minutes, followed by a group discussion. We come together to create a sangha community, and support each other as we deepen, reignite or begin our practice. We are diverse in age, experience and cultural backgrounds but share an interest in Buddhist teachings, specifically Thich Nhat Hanh, but draw from many wells. There is no charge as the dharma and practice should not have a price and be available to everyone. Sangha members are starting kirtan, a book club, and various musical and ceremonial gatherings.

You may come to the full day (10am-4pm, recommended, $120) which includes two Breathwork Meditation Sessions and a session of Self-discovery. You may also come to the first Breathwork Meditation Session only (10am-1pm, $60).

Benefits of Breakthrough Breathwork Meditation:
Profound relaxation to release stress, anxiety, and pent-up emotions
Deeper connection with your true Nature
Heal physical pain and past trauma
Open up to more self-love
Increased mental clarity
Expand your lungs to breathe more freely
