The first Earth School session was a beautiful invitation to slow down and reconnect with the land around us, our own creativity, and local community garden, by exploring different ways of being in relationship with the Earth 🌎

Under the trees, we weaved together music, ecology, herbalism, mindfulness, storytelling, and craft.

It’s been a soundscape summer. 🎶
Grateful for it all and all the paths I cross.
No complaints here, the weather is nice, but I do pray for peace in all corners of the world that don’t have this privilege.
May peace & kindness conquer the hearts of those who spread evil. 🙏
