SUMMARY:Recipes & Rituals for Community Care: Soundbath Meditation & Tea Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an herbal tea ceremony\, and sound-bowl meditation.\n\n\nJoin us for a moment to slow down for a reflective evening of tea\, and sound. Grounding in our herbal tea of the evening of hibiscus\, mint\, and butterfly pea\, we’ll begin the evening learning how to welcome these plants into our bodies through a tea ceremony led by Tia. Tia will share her practice with both tea and soundbaths\, sharing how these practices can contribute to collective care for ourselves and each other. We’ll close the evening with Tia leading us into a soundbath meditation. \nTake time to exchange breath with the plants in the greenhouse\, enjoy and herbal tea to calm the body\, and rest into this guided soundbath meditation.\n\n\n\nYour Facilitator: Mattia “Tia” Colon is an Environmental Master Level Social Worker\, Soundbowl Mindfulness Meditation Facilitator and Community Gardener. She facilitates soundbowl mindfulness meditation events to diverse communities across NYC. She utilizes various singing bowls and other instruments to create sound frequencies to induce a relaxing and healing atmosphere. She will be hosting future meditation and tea ceremony events to create powerful meditative experiences.\n\n\n\n\nWhat does it mean to heal in community? What does it feel like when we extend care to ourselves and the collective? How do plants and our local ecologies care for us? How can we care for the plants and local ecologies in return?\n \nWeave in rituals and recipes into your own self-care and community care practices through weekly explorations in herbal arts\, somatic movement in the greenhouse and garden\, folk remedies\, and other wild-crafts and meditative activities that foster a deeper connection to plants to care for the body\, mental health\, and the people you move with. \n \nEach week\, be guided by a guest herbalist\, healing artist\, or wellness practitioner who will help you create your own toolkit and apothecary for self and communal care.\n\n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine. \nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible. With prior planning\, we can add a few small mats onto the pebbled ground of greenhouse to make a small wheel-chair accessible path. Our learning garden has grass paths\, and the entrance is through a gate with a small\, raised entrance. Our tables can be lowered/raised\, and we have several backless benches or stools. Our kitchen is in regular use\, and while we try to cook without peanuts\, much of our cookware is shared and we cannot guarantee a nut-free environment. We have a first aid kit\, and the closest AED is in another building several yards away. Drinking water is made available in refillable pitchers. \nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces. \nOur closest bathrooms are a building away\, about a one-minute walk. A gender neutral bathroom is also available\, and this is accessible by key which you can request from staff. We are not a scent-free zone\, and because herbalism classes take place here\, cannot guarantee that the site will be clear of any essential oil smells. If you have needs not addressed here\, please reach out to Mallory Craig at mcraig@thehort.org.
