About this Event
Did you know plants have a circadian rhythm just like us? Join us for the last monthly meditation of 2024 at Merrihew's Sunset Gardens.
We'll gather around a fire as the sun sets and the moon rises, settling in to meditate with the plants. We'll begin with some ambient live handpan drum music by Moshir Safavi, then a plant-themed dharma talk by Buddhist meditation teacher Jess Mack, followed by a guided meditation where you'll settle into the sounds of the garden as the plants prepare for sleep.
Reconnect with your breath and the ground beneath you as the week winds down.
Chairs and blankets available, but please bring any additional cushions, mats, or layers you need to feel comfortable.
All levels + ages welcome. Space is limited. Plus all meditation participants receive 10% off all day-of purchases at Merrihew's.
Tickets: $20 online - $25 at the door
