Asheville, N.C. is bracing itself for some serious weather as forecasts predict widespread, heavy rainfall tonight and into tomorrow. The storm is expected to bring varying amounts of rain across the region, with totals potentially exceeding 4 inches in eastern areas, and around 2-3 inches near Asheville.
What’s on the Horizon?
Weather experts are urging residents to prepare for wet conditions that might impact daily routines. Safety is paramount, and everyone is reminded to stay updated on changing weather forecasts and travel advisories. So, if you have evening plans tonight, you might want to rethink them!
Where to Find Shelter and Safety

A Day of Spiritual Insight with BK Sister Shivani
On a different note, Asheville recently welcomed BK Sister Shivani, a spiritual teacher known worldwide, who delivered a powerful message at UNC Asheville’s Kimmel Arena. On September 16, she captivated the audience with insights on inner power and navigating life’s challenges.
Unlocking the Power Within
Her speech resonated with many attendees, focusing on the importance of harnessing inner strength in an increasingly chaotic world. “In a world where we’re focused on outer power, the power of role, position – which is very important – but we have forgotten to take care of the power within,” Sister Shivani noted. This perspective is particularly crucial as many grapple with stress, anxiety, and other emotional disturbances.
The Rising Need for Mindfulness
As mental health issues are on the rise, notably among students, her words serve as a gentle reminder to prioritize self-care and emotional well-being. “We’ve seen the consequence of that neglect now in our life, in terms of emotional disturbances – calling stress, anxiety, and fear normal,” she continued.
Community Impact and Engagement
The event attracted attendees from various backgrounds, highlighting a community eager to explore deeper connections with themselves amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life. Her teachings encourage mindfulness and self-transformation, aiming to promote peace and stability in one’s life.
Taking Steps Towards Change
For those looking to implement the lessons shared during the event, start small. Incorporating mindfulness practices such as meditation, journaling, or even simple breathing exercises into your daily routine can foster a greater sense of inner peace. The key takeaway? It’s not just about what’s happening around us but what we choose to cultivate within ourselves that can lead to meaningful change.
A Bright Side Amidst the Clouds
As Asheville faces the challenging weather ahead, the messages from Sister Shivani serve as a beacon of hope and encouragement. By embracing the inner power in all of us, we can better navigate the storms life throws our way — whether they come in the form of rain or personal challenges.
So, gear up for the rain, reflect on your journey, and remember that taking the time to nurture your inner self can lead to profound changes in your outlook and mental health. Stay safe out there, and don’t forget to keep your spirits high!
