Experience this beautiful workshop that represents the journey of healing. The Japanese legend of Kintsugi comes from an ancient emperor who broke his favorite bowl. He asked his staff to repair the bowl, and after some trial and error, the bowl was put back together with gold, making it more valuable than it was before it was broken, not only in its value but in its beauty.

The tradition of kintsugi has come to represent that even after you have been broken, the process of putting yourself back together is the value and beauty of growth and healing.

During this workshop, we will break a bowl and put it back together with gold. While our bowls are drying, we will participate in a nurturing yoga class with specific movements to ease our nervous systems, and then we will listen to the soothing sounds of singing bowls and other sound healing tools.

You will leave this workshop with tools to ease your nervous system and a cherished bowl representing your healing journey.

Please bring:

  • a box to carry your kintsugi bowl home and then allow it to dry for at least 24 hours

  • a yoga mat
