Resonance: A Yoga & Sound Journey is a practice led by Pasadena-raised yoga teacher (and musician) Qur’an Shaheed with a guest musician on second Sundays of each month at Arlington Garden. The late morning/early afternoon session blends movement, breath, and live music outdoors to deepen the mind-body-nature connection. This immersive experience weaves together flowing asana, guided breathwork, and intuitive soundscapes, creating space for inner alignment and self-discovery. Rooted in both stillness and rhythm, each session invites you to tune in, release, and move in harmony with the present moment. Each month features a different musical collaborator.  Participation in yoga is optional, and if you just want to lay underneath the trees and listen that’s absolutely encouraged!   These limited capacity monthly classes are now free of charge thanks to a grant from the California Community Foundation.  Please register in advance for each month on the Living Earth website.

It is a values-based community inspired by fungi working together to learn how to be in better relationship with the more-than-human world. Each workshop is unique with a dedicated topic, and approaches to exploration have included guest speakers, book discussions, the Fungi Film Festival, and more.  All events are free and open to the public - you are always welcome to join! Founded by mycologist Aaron Tupac in July 2021, Mycoverse has hosted over 100 workshops, reaching more than 1,000 people.

Learn regenerative gardening by doing it yourself with other volunteers! Every final Saturday of the month from 9:00am to 12:00pm join us for a Weekend Projects volunteer event. Participation is free and getting dirt-ish in a beautiful garden is enjoyable. All events that are part of this final Saturday program are project-based rebuild projects--learn how to garden regeneratively with native and mediterranean climate plants by working on a specific rejuvenation or rebuild in the garden. Examples of possible projects include replanting a native plant walk subsumed by CA wild roses and weeds, redesigning garden "rooms" damaged by heat and improving their irrigation, prepping beds for wildflower sowing, joining a garden survey to catalogue the different species found in the garden 20 years after our founding.

Hosted at Arlington Garden since February 2025, Holding Space is a gathering for all ages event organized by Hands in the Soil (HITS) dedicated to rest, renewal, collective healing, and community recovery in partnership with nature. Holding Space is a community gathering focused on deep listening, reflection, and collective healing in nature, with Arlington Garden offering a sanctuary for restoration and connection. This free wellness pop-up is an ongoing effort that supports and centers the communities and families who continue to heal from the impacts of the Eaton Fire. Intentional monthly activations—ranging from movement and meditation to grief circles and creative expression—cultivate a space for all to pause, reconnect, and strengthen bonds within community. Through creativity, collective care, and connection to nature, we hold space for grief, renewal and resilience. This program is made possible thanks to a generous grant from the California Community Foundation.
