2025 Sound Healing Meditation

  • Won Buddhism Meditation Temple (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Both sessions are now full.
Please join our Online Winter Retreat!

Let us welcome the Winter Solstice by immersing ourselves in deeply resonant healing sounds at the Chapel Hill Temple! We will have two 80-minute meditations (3 PM & 7 PM) immersed in the healing sounds of crystal bowls, gongs, and chanting voices.

In this magical time of dark and light, we will be guided to rest our hearts and minds, while tuning into the vibrations of vocal and instrumental sounds. As we gather in the community, the cosmic energy of the Winter Solstice invites us to release mental and emotional blockages. Come join us!
