Spell of the Sensuous 
Online Outdoor Gathering of the Senses

Thursday April 30th, 10:30am - 12pm pst
ZOOM in from anywhere, ideally somewhere outside
FREE if funds are an obstacle, $5-10 donation is appreciated
**RSVP** for link: send email to [email protected] to register
Gathering will include guided sensory, mindfulness, and nature-connection practices.

Late Spring is buzzing and bursting with life. As we humans shelter in place, the sky is clearing its bright blue eyes, while flowers smile their scents widely and bees dance drunken in the sweetness. You don’t have to go far to feel the full spectrum of Spring. The blue bird truly is in your own backyard!

In this [virtual] gathering you will be invited to tune into the deliciousness of Late Spring with your senses, and connect deeply with the delights of the natural world. Coinciding with Beltane (May Day) the pagan day of fertility, frolicking, and sensual delights, we will celebrate the aliveness of nature in ourselves and our local environments.             ("Spell of the Sensuous" is from the title of a David Abram book)

The Earth Mandala is an intimate practice of co-creating beauty with earth as partner and palette. 
Imagine the beautiful, bountiful body of the earth. See the infinite fanning of ferns, brush the soft fur of redwood, breathe in the tingle of freshly dug soil. Recognize the creative capacity of your own earth body. Feed earth with beauty, be fed by hers. Rest in reciprocity. Together we will drop into a meditative, collective, creative process with the earth through the practice of mandala making. 

​In this workshop we will create an earth mandala in, with, from, and for the natural environment.
Workshop will include:
* a short hike into the redwoods
* guided meditation and movement to invoke deep listening and tap into collective creativity 
* create an earth mandala together as a blessing upon the earth and all living things
* giving and gathering the goods: practices of reciprocity
* celebration snacks!
