New Year’s Eve Intention Setting Practice w/ Richard Fabio
Dec 26 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Asheville Yoga Center --IN-PERSON & VIRTUAL)
Take time this New Year’s Eve to cultivate the upcoming year. Most people make a New Year’s Resolution and drift away from their goal after just a few months, but the essence of our resolutions is always so inspiring and positive. What happens?
This year, by utilizing our yoga practice, we will take time to tune in, become fully aware of our wants and needs and distill them into our resolutions for 2023. No prior experience is necessary, and all levels of yoga are welcome. This is both a deeply inward experience and a joyful celebration of our aliveness.

Meditative Morning
Jan 3 @ 8:00 am – 10:00 am
The North Carolina Arboretum

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!
