Begin your experience with a guided forest walk, where you'll engage all your senses to connect deeply with the natural world around you. Feel the earth beneath your feet, listen to the whispers of the trees, and gather inspiration from nature's perfect patterns.
Next, you'll be guided through gentle Reiki meditations to open your energy centers and enhance your creative flow. This restorative practice prepares you to receive nature's wisdom and express it through artistic creation.
Learn about the rich history and significance of mandalas across cultures as tools for meditation, healing, and expressing the cosmos in miniature. Then, experience both collaborative creation through a group mandala project and personal expression by crafting your own individual earth mandala using natural materials.
The experience continues with a reflective journaling session, allowing you to capture insights and intentions that arose during your creative process. We'll close with a circle share, creating space for connection and community.
