Seeds & Songs of Resilience

As the world unravels, seeds and songs keep us grounded. Let’s explore how embodied creative practices can open pathways for personal and collective resilience.  We’ll play with song (listen here!), explore gardens, forest bathe, write, reflect and rest. Whether you’re new to nature study and singing or have decades of experience tending these edges, you’re invited to join this circle of shared exploration dedicated to our shared well-being. 

Together we’ll craft an evolving, communal sanctuary of discovery. We’ll play with song, explore gardens, forest bathe, honor our lineages, write, share silence, reflect and rest. Each session alternates between the seeds leading us (with Petra, co-founder of Fruition Seeds) and song as our muse (with Tracy, founder of Vocal Bloom). We’ll share solo, partner and group explorations supported by gentle facilitations designed to spark curiosity, creativity and connection.

With seeds and songs as our ancestors and mentors, we’ll explore practices growing our personal as well as collective capacity to respond creatively, cultivating joy and resilience in these times 💛
