About the event
In this gentle, hands-on workshop, participants will be introduced to Zen gardening as a practice of mindfulness, focus, and relaxation. Rather than rushing toward a finished product, you will be invited to settle into the process—feeling the movement of sand, thoughtfully placing stones and pebbles, and noticing how simple, intentional actions can help quiet mental noise and bring your attention into the present moment.

Through a guided meditation practice, participants will create their own small Zen garden using sand, stones, pebbles, and miniature gardening tools. You will have spacious time to experiment, rearrange, rake, and reflect, allowing the garden to evolve without pressure or expectation.
All materials are provided. No prior meditation or gardening experience is necessary.
Facilitated by Lisa Langlois, PhD, DMs, Reiki Master, and certified Meditation Teacher, using science and spiritual techniques together to help you create more balance in life.
