Zen & the Arts 2580 Ponce De Leon Drive, Naples, FL 34105
About the Business
Zen & the Arts is a unique institution located at 2580 Ponce De Leon Drive in Naples, Florida, United States. We are a combination of a gym, health center, place of worship, and school, dedicated to bringing together meditation and the creative arts. Our goal is to offer these practices to the Southwest Florida community and beyond, providing a space for individuals to explore and express their deepest selves.
In the long history of Zen Buddhism, art has always been seen as a practice path, a way to understand and express our true nature. At Zen & the Arts, we offer a variety of meditation and art classes for all levels of experience. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced practitioner, you are welcome to join us in meditation and creative expression.
Our focus is on three main mediums: visual arts, music, and creative writing. Through drawing, painting, music, and poetry, we believe that art can awaken the mind and heart. Additionally, we offer Yoga Nidra, a form of guided meditation that induces deep relaxation and healing.
As a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, Zen & the Arts relies on donations to continue our work. Your support is greatly appreciated as we strive to spread the teachings of the Dharma. Visit our website to learn more about our classes, events, and how you can contribute to our mission. Join us in the journey of self-discovery and creativity at Zen & the Arts.

"I would highly recommend trying one of Laurie Lyons classes and meditation sessions. She is very knowledgeable and kind and is great with beginners as well as advanced students. I believe everyone can benefit from her wisdom and teachings. Linda"
"Laurie Lyons is a clear and down to earth Zen teacher. The group that has gathered around her is friendly and supportive. I feel so blessed to have found this center for meditation."
"I've been enjoying my time thoroughly with the Zen & Arts community under Laurie's instruction. The group is very welcoming, warm, and a whole lot of fun. It's a great space (which is also accessible virtually) to practice meditation, understand Zen teachings, and to be a part of something larger than self, especially with a focus on creativity, whatever that may be for you."
"I love to meditate with this group. Every week Laurie has a very insightful talk and lives the kindness and caring that she teaches. The care down to earth and very accepting. I also thoroughly enjoy the Yoga Nidra that Laurie does on Monday evenings. It is extremely relaxing and helps me cope with my chronic pain."
"Sensei Laurie is a gifted teacher. She brings a depth of knowledge, an easy, accessible teaching style combined with genuine warmth and a gentle sense of humor to create an engaging and meaningful experience for participants."
