Zen Retreat: A Matcha and Clay Experience
Step into a day of mindfulness, relaxation, and creativity at this intimate Zen Retreat. This unique experience offers a chance to recharge, connect with others, and engage deeply with the present moment. Guests will indulge in delicious offerings from El Bagel, sip on refreshing drinks by Kin Euphorics, enjoy sweets from Misha Bakes It, and appreciate beautiful floral arrangements by Neroli Blume.
The retreat begins with a traditional Japanese tea ceremony, led by local wellness instructor Mica Luna. This ceremony will involve the mindful preparation and presentation of matcha, a tea known for enhancing focus and consciousness, setting the stage for a meditative experience. Afterward, participants will enjoy a Reiki-infused meditation accompanied by the calming sounds of Japanese bells and Tibetan bowls, guiding them through a journey of energy healing, mindful breathing, and deep relaxation.
In the second half of the day, participants will tap into their creative potential with a hands-on ceramics workshop led by local artist Erica Lores. The experience invites guests to set their intentions while sculpting their own matcha tea cup or bowl out of stoneware clay. Each piece will be fired and glazed after the retreat, allowing attendees to carry home a tangible reminder of their creative journey.
This retreat is an opportunity to blend art with mindfulness, bringing intention and focus into every aspect of the experience. Limited spots are available, so don’t miss out on this tranquil and enriching day.
