OutSide! This month roll on essential oils!
We’ll
– make roll-ons together
– go over acupressure points with Wendy
– take home a special herb of the month from all of us
- enjoy hot nettle tea by Marie
– Seed sharing
– Open space: offer and or receive
The open space time around 3:30 to 5 is always slightly different depending on who shows up. We have had wellness activities, healing, mutual aid for an enjoyable fun gathering. We all bring our myriad of skills for a mutual give and receive.
Last Months Indoors
Jan/Feb/Mar. were inside. We made allergy tincture, coconut salt scrub, and elderberry syrup. We had hot tea and dishes people brought. We had an open space where people offered and received acupuncture, acupressure, I ching readings, and seeds to give away. We had elders, parents, kids, a toddler and puppy. There were several skilled neighborhood certified practitioners sharing their wellness modalities.
Bring:
A mug, a spork to consume edibles. Welcome to bring snacks to share. Bring a throw with plastic bottom, your yoga mat, instrument, art stuff, sacred object, food, drink. Organic Non GMO if possible.
Most of all just bring yourself!
Hope to see you!
