HEALING CONVERGENCE
AT MANDALA SPRINGS
NOV 21 - 24
We are excited to offer a weekend of immersive healing for extended Asheville area Nov 21st-24th!
The weekend was created by and for WNC folks whose lives were impacted by Hurricane Helene.
We acknowledge that the hurricane was a community-wide experience, and that we can also heal together, in another community-wide experience; this time of our choosing.
Recalibrating to all of this newness, this grief, this gratitude, this surrender, and this action. Together.
If you are interested in joining for FREE as a participant please grab your ticket HERE!
Camping is available free on-site, and there are also bell tents available to rent. You can claim a glamping tent through the sleeping section found below.
There will be an organic, seed oil free, locally sourced Lebanese food vendor for the weekend, so please bring money for food or be prepared for self-sufficiency!
Volunteers are also needed and welcomed. If you would like to be a piece of the puzzle that helps us put on this incredible event, please fill out this application HERE.

Kambo Ceremony
Friday 8-11:30am with Wryn, Alanna, & Rob. Space is limited to 9 participants.
About Kambo: Kambo, also known as the "frog medicine," is a traditional healing practice used by indigenous tribes in the Amazon. It involves applying the secretion of the Phyllomedusa bicolor frog to the skin, leading to a detoxifying and cleansing process that can help with physical, emotional, and spiritual healing.
What to Expect: Our Kambo ceremonies are thoughtfully designed to create a safe, supportive, and welcoming environment. At Mandala Springs, you'll find a tranquil sanctuary surrounded by nature, perfect for deep healing and self-discovery. We guide you through the preparation, ceremony, and aftercare, ensuring a holistic and nurturing experience.
