Co-hosted by Cultural Roots Homeschool Co-op at Pine Camp Cultural Arts and Community Center
Let’s explore the way incense brings together elements of earth, air, water, and fire as we connect with the qualities of aromatic herbs and resins. We’ll begin with the breath, acknowledging and calling upon our intuition to craft a relationship with each ingredient.
Materials are provided and include redcedar shavings sourced from our family homestead, along with a variety of herbs and resins.
There will be space for group discussion and individual contemplation. Participants will have time to spend with each ingredient before creating a unique blend to enjoy at home.
