The practice of forest bathing encourages you to slow down, relax and reconnect with nature by quieting the mind and awakening the senses.
Join a certified forest therapy guide for a relaxing 2.5-hour stroll through the forest in our stunning Blue Ridge Mountains. Through a series of invitations, you’ll have the opportunity to be present in the moment, deepening your connection with nature and community, and enjoying the many gifts nature has to offer. The walk culminates in a tea ceremony with snacks.
What is Forest Bathing? Forest Bathing is simply a guided walk in nature. Your guide will share mindfulness practices and invitations designed to connect you more deeply to your inner landscapes, as well as the world around you. Inspired by Shinrin-Yoku, the Japanese art of immersing oneself in a forest environment, forest bathing walks invite guests to spend time in nature in a way that invites healing for ourselves, our fraught ecosystems, and our community. It is true nature therapy!
This is essentially a mindful, rejuvenating walk in the forest…no actual “bathing” required.
This experience is great for groups and is a unique team-building activity. Private walks are available nearly every day! If you don’t see your date and time listed, please reach out! I’d love to see you on the trail.
Welcome to the Vampire Ball, a fall fundraiser for the arts! Get ready for a night of fangs, fun, and fantastic music. Join us at the Black Mountain Center for the Arts for an unforgettable evening. Dress to impress in your most haunting Halloween attire and indulge in a night of dancing and mingling with fellow creatures of the night. Your ticket for this fundraiser includes entry and one beverage. Snacks, a spooktacular fun photobooth, and tickets for exclusive raffles will be available for purchase. So, mark your calendars and get ready to sink your teeth into a night of mysterious enchantment at the Vampire Ball!

*Open to the Public* – we will have food, games and prizes! Learn about chiropractic and nutritional health while you’re here from those who are passionate about what we do and how we do it differently. We can’t wait to meet everyone!
Since 2005, the Asheville Habitat ReStore has
hosted a bi-monthly Silent Auction featuring a vast array of items including turn-of-the-
century furniture, antique toys, vintage bicycles and sports memorabilia, all sort of
collectibles, locally made art, and occasionally items so rare and unique that no one
even knows what they are.
The auction running November 1 st through the 15 th will be particularly special. The
curated items are all locally handmade and contributed by Asheville Habitat staff
and core volunteers! Nearly 30 staffers and volunteers donated their art, and there will
be over 90 items to bid on including stained glass, wood-turned pieces, pottery, oil
paintings, and much more.
