# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Metta & Mandala: A Monthly Nature and Mindfulness Gathering
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 08 Aug, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sat, 08 Aug, 2026 at 12:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Join us love, wild gardens at Wild Roots Apothecary, River Lane, Sperryville, Virginia for meditation, mindfulness, and mandala-making.

Once a month, Melissa Mello leads an intimate two-hour gathering at love, wild gardens that moves through three simple practices — a Metta (loving kindness) meditation, a silent mindfulness walk along the river, and mandala-making with found objects and flowers from the land. Together they form something greater than the sum of their parts: a moving and grounding experience of self-compassion, presence, and connection.

You don't need to be a meditator. You don't need to be an artist. You just need to show up and reset.

Capacity: Limited to 20 guests

When: 2nd Weekends, Monthly (see listed dates + times above!)

Cost: $20
