RECONCILING THE NATURE-SPIRIT CONNECTION

Estranged from Mother Earth's balancing and cleansing nurture, our nature-depleted souls lose vitality. This workshop reconnects you through: sow & release rituals, flower/herb therapies, meditation, earth omens, and more, to open channels, reconcile and repair the frayed bond between earth energies and your nature-starved spirit, and stimulate your consciousness, creativity, health, and body/mind/spirit equilibrium. We will walk to a nearby park. Materials and between-session coaching included.
