Terms like "addict" or "ju**ie" dehumanize.

Nobody should be reduced to a single label.
When we call someone “an addict,” we ignore their whole story.

Stigma kills. Language can heal.

Overdoses don't only happen to people who use "hard" drugs; anyone can experience an overdose, including from prescribed medications like opioids and benzos.

Let's approach this reality with compassion, not judgment.

Invite your body-mind-spirit into a day of immersion in the abundant beauty of our mountains, rivers, and skies. Let go of time & things to do. Chat or spend time in quiet as you walk in good company. Nature has a way of infusing us with restorative energies that move beyond words.

Meet at United Way Bldg., 50 S. French Broad Ave. Asheville 28001. Park in the front parking lot in any yellow spot. Plan to arrive by 9:15. We'll carpool to the trail, with our group leaving at 9:30 sharp. In the event of a forecast of all day rain or heavy thunderstorms in our designated area, SeekHealing will post a cancellation message on our website.

Our hikes range between 3-4 miles. On most hikes, you can up and downhill terrain, though some hikes will be mostly flat. We'll stop for lunch and hang-out time, which may include time for a short practice, relating game, or a dip in the river!

Expect to return to the United Way Bldg. by 3:30/4:00.

Things to Wear/Bring
• hiking boots/shoes
• appropriate clothing for mountain weather that shifts throughout the day and elevation
• a swimsuit & towel in case we hike near a stream
• snacks, lunch, ample water
• a day-pack, cushion/blanket to sit on, bug repellent, sun screen, anything else you need to be comfortable

Overdose Awareness Month is about both mourning and mobilizing.
If you've lost someone, we hold space for your grief. 💔
If you’re still here, you are worthy of healing.

Sometimes the most healing words are: “I’m not going anywhere.”

Practice sitting in silence. Holding space. Being a human with another human.
