Learn how to connect with the qi (life force energy) of a flower, and invite it's wisdom into your home and meditation practice. You will receive an instructional demonstration on how to create an ikebana arrangement, interwoven with contemplative dharma art and Buddhist and Taoist teachings. This program is for anyone looking to develop a greater awareness of nature, their environment and the world of flowers while connecting with other people who love flowers and contemplative arts.
