Botanical Meditations: Cultivate calm thru art and plant life

About this Event

**This workshop brings together meditation, art, and nature to bring about calm and a closer connection to the more-than human world.** We will explore ways of meditating with plants as our guide and artmaking as our medium of cultivating awareness. Participate in simple creative exercises that involve playing with words, color, shapes, gestures, and forms to create visual and poetic botanical portraits to take home. **No previous experience in art or meditation is necessary.** **18€ Early-bird price until Jan 30; 25€ Door** Feel free to bring your favorite art tools, a journal, and paper. Simple watercolors, pastels, pencils, and paper will also be provided. Host: Minette Mangahas has studied Buddhist meditation and art with masters of Tibetan, Zen, and Theravada Buddhism for over twenty years. She has been a regular host of group meditations at Bodhispace and previously offered the art and meditation workshop “The Year-End Cleanse.” Note: Students and those with financial hardship can contact us for reduced entry.
