Ananda Leeke, yoga instructor:
"The waterfall in Malcolm X/Meridian Hill Park is sacred to me because it connects me to nature, the healing power of water and the spirit of one of most powerful African American ancestral spirits: Malcolm X. I love to meditate, write in my journal, chant with my mala beads and practice yoga by the waterfall. My spirit, mind, body and heart resonate with the energy of nature in the park."
MERIDIAN HILL PARK 16th and Euclid streets NW.
Meitia Hedge, reiki healer:
"I love the National Arboretum. It is perfect for a walking meditation or sitting meditation on the bench or the grass. The energy at the arboretum is very special. It is an uplifting kind of energy. . . . I love sitting by the lemon tree at the herb garden (I love scents, helps me 'be present') or in the rose garden. You have many choices of location and landscape to choose from, whatever resonates with what you need [or] want at the time. And it's free."
