Nurture your mind and body while in nature with an immersive full body listening experience “bathing” in the vibrations emitted from Crystal Alchemy, Crystal Quartz, and Tibetan bowls plus the Earth, Water, Fire & Air Koshi chimes. Unplug, slow down and take a breath to pause alone or with the entire family. You will be laying down for this experience, so bring a mat or blanket to enjoy.

Latest News & Blog Posts
The cycle of life is now evident in Pease Park, as we have recently learned that five Cedar Elms in Kingsbury Commons have reached a point where they need to come down. Each of these trees has experienced loss of major limbs and canopy repair, and while some parts of the trees are still alive, they pose a danger to park visitors and must be removed. They have provided parkgoers with shade and beauty, and birds, squirrels, and bugs with shelter and nourishment. We are sad to see them go.
Fall is officially here and Halloween is just around the corner!
We know all too well how difficult it can be to find a costume that expresses your wit, interests, and unique individuality. As a cherished Pease Park Conservancy volunteer we want to ease your worries and give you some park-inspired Halloween costume ideas!
The catch? Well we would love to see you at the park volunteering in your park-personified costumes - just make sure you can still move around and volunteer in your look!
Read on for upcoming volunteer events, news and blogposts from the 84 acres, and featured programming events.
The Shoal Creek Trail through Pease park has been blocked by debris from two major landslides that occurred in 2018 and 2019. After years of advocacy with the City of Austin from Shoal Creek Conservancy (SCC) and Pease Park Conservancy (PPC), the debris and trail closure remain. Though this is a complex issue, PPC, SCC, and Pemberton Heights Neighborhood Association (PHNA) agree that it remains an important priority to work with the City to provide a safe, accessible restoration of this area of the park and the trail that serves it.
