🌿 A Hands-On Herbal Retreat: From Garden to Cup, Discover the Magic of Mint

Friday, July 3, 2026 | 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM PDT

Join us for a refreshing and immersive 3-hour retreat dedicated to one of nature’s most beloved herbs: mint.

Together, we'll explore the gardens and experience a variety of fresh mints, including peppermint, spearmint, applemint, chocolate mint, and pineapple mint. Learn about the history, benefits, traditional uses, and practical ways to incorporate mint into your daily life.

Held at the gorgeous nature retreat: Heart Song Retreat

The retreat includes:

• Guided meditation and mindful nature connection
• Hands-on exploration of multiple mint varieties
• Herbal education on the benefits and uses of mint
• Lavender and mint lemonade, treats, and refreshments
• Tips for identifying, growing, harvesting, and storing mint
• A custom herbal tea blending workshop
• Reflection, community, and inspiration

During the tea blending workshop, you'll create your own personalized herbal mint tea to take home using hand-harvested dried mints and complementary herbs such as chamomile, lemon balm, ginger, lavender, and lemon peel. Whether your intention is calming, uplifting, restorative, or simply delicious, you'll craft a blend that reflects your personal taste and purpose.

We’ll conclude with quiet reflection and sharing, leaving you with new herbal knowledge, a handcrafted tea blend, and a deeper appreciation for the wisdom found in the garden.

No prior herbal experience is necessary. All materials are provided.

💙 Cost: Donation

You are warmly invited to a roundtable forum exploring the spiritual aspects of financial responsibility and material success.

Paramhansa Yogananda described the ability to make money “industriously and honestly” as an important spiritual practice that helps the soul evolve toward Self-realization. When we offer our skills, resources, and success back to God in a spirit of service and non-attachment, they become blessed many times over.

Together, we will share practical skills, spiritual principles, and inspiring stories from the lives of those who have successfully brought Spirit into their work and daily lives. Drawing on the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda and Swami Kriyananda, we will explore how to spiritualize our intentions and align material success with higher values.

Topics may include:
• The importance of intention
• Non-attachment to results while maintaining energy and enthusiasm
• Failure as the road to success
• There are no obstacles—only opportunities
• Adapting to change
• Concentration
• Skill, luck, or karma?
• How success can serve a spiritual work
• The practice of tithing
• Is honesty a burden to success?
• Developing skills
• Choosing a co-owner or employee
• Staff relations
• Debt, vendors, and creditors

All are welcome!

Relax deeply with the ancient practice of singing bowl sound healing. Used for centuries in Nepal, Tibet, and beyond, these sacred vibrations help quiet the mind, soothe the body, and create space for Divine awareness. We'll conclude the day with a healing sound bath to integrate our journey together.
