The moon cycle is a theme throughout the design of Buffalo Bayou Park, from the Lunar Cycle Lighting along the trails to the moon pattern-cut columns along the Carruth pedestrian bridge. Now, park visitors can observe monthly New Moon Meditations in the Buffalo Bayou Cistern.

The new moon is commonly known as a time to initiate beginnings.  This sound healing meditation series will feature the use of singing bowls and wind chimes to encourage mindfulness and connectivity. Guests should bring their own cushion or mat. New Moon Meditation is led by Saumil Manek with Union is Creation.
