New Year’s Earth Altars

with Founder & Abbess Suiko

Saturday January 7

11am-1pm PST (2-4pm EST)

via Zoom

sliding scale $40 / $75 / $108

Truly, no one turned away for lack of funds.

 

This workshop is a ritual that approaches the natural world as a source of wisdom, a sort of sacred text in itself, and provides a structure that guides us to slow down and tune into the natural world.

This experience follows the Way of the Artmonk:

  • Attune – Still the bodymind. Allow connection with the source to arise (whatever that source may be).
  • Welcome – Receive everything that comes. No judgement. Amass material.
  • Respond – Apply the appropriate tool. Reflect and refine.
  • Offer – Share the work. Connect with the world.

We will gather materials as part of the workshop, so there’s nothing you need to do ahead of time. Of course, if you are inspired to gather materials ahead of time, please do!

 

Suiko worked closely with artist Day Schildkret and is a certified Morning Altars Teacher.
