The Healing Power of Orchids

Orchids enchant, captivate and inspire us. They have been linked to transformation of the mind in Buddhism, while in other traditions, they are symbolic of love, truth, courage, wealth, resilience and the triumph of the human spirit. Modern science shows that connecting with natural beauty has a therapeutic impact on our mental well-being, alleviating stress, anxiety, and overwhelm.
Enjoy this opportunity to be inspired by the Orchid Show and the symbolism and beauty of orchids to recharge, recalibrate, and refresh. Simple meditation practices, guided visualization, and journaling prompts will help you find a fresh outlook as you tap into the wisdom of nature – and your own.
All proceeds from this class go toward Selby Gardens’ Hurricane Recovery Fund.
