Tonight at Ruscombe! Coming together in community is a great way to warm the heart as winter continues to bring snow and chill us to the bone. Please join Ari in practicing the art and science of mindfulness meditation.

Grounded in Buddhist lineage and trained by respected teachers, he offers meditation guidance in the Insight tradition that helps practitioners navigate life's challenges with wisdom and compassion.

Whether leading a meditation session or performing intimate concerts, Ari brings together traditional wisdom and artistic expression to foster genuine human connection and transformation.

As the year draws to a close, Ruscombe Community extends heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported, participated in, and believed in this space over the past year. Your presence, generosity, and care are what allow this community to continue growing.

We recently gathered for a Winter Solstice potluck—sharing food, candlelight, and conversation as we marked the longest night of the year. The candles in this photo reflect a moment of collective pause: a time to honor rest, reflection, and the quiet turning toward longer days and renewed light.

This simple evening of community-building reminded us why Ruscombe exists—to offer a place where people can slow down, connect meaningfully, and carry intention forward into the seasons ahead.

With gratitude and warm wishes for the new year.

In celebration of , our generous Operations Manager at Ruscombe Mansion Holistic Community Health Center surprised us with snacks and sweet treats in the Mansion Kitchen for everyone to enjoy! Everyone was invited to stop by, take a moment to indulge, and let this be a small invitation to pause, smile, and connect.

Halloween is not only a time for costumes and candy, but also a time to honor our inner child by embracing imagination, delight, and creativity.

Across many cultures, this season is also sacred: in Mexico, El Día de los Mu***os (October 31–November 2) is a time when families reunite with the spirits of loved ones; the ancient Gaelic festival Samhain marks the turning of the seasons, with belief that the veil between worlds grows thin at this time; and in Italy, Ognissanti or All Saints’ Day (November 1) honors the saints and martyrs who walked before us.

In that same spirit, let us also take this time to honor the original inhabitants of this land and all those who have helped keep Ruscombe a sanctuary for healing and reflection.

Have a great weekend!
