• Have you ever wanted to experience a Forest Bathing session?
• Want to make your own mala beads?
• Interested in meeting others who are seeking for a better connection with their spiritual & wild selves? Come join us!

Mala Beads are used in recitation and meditation and aids with healing. They increase calmness, balance, patience, energy levels and positive thinking. Each type of mala beads are used in mala prayers and have different healing powers and benefits.

Jaclyn would be leading a meditation and blessing the malas, and then teaching folks how to tie their malas. It takes approximately 2 hours for them to complete the whole process of setting up their mala kit, learning how and then working, knotting between each stone, making your own tassel. You will be able to incorporate breathing and other rhythmic techniques while making your necklace.

Summer will be leading a Nature Therapy walk, which includes a 2.5 hour session focusing on Nature Connection. This involves doing forest breathing (breathwork), connecting to your senses, doing some invitations that deepens the connection, and sharing our experiences during a tea ceremony at the end. Tea is locally harvested and blended by a certified Deaf Herbalist, Bouquet of Basil herbals.

This is a special event offered by Jaclyn Tyrcha, a Deaf Lightworker and Animal Communicator, and the Giving Cypress, a Deaf and queer-owned Nature Therapy business.

We will meet up at the site where we will begin making our mala beads (most likely the front gate area of the park), and then walk through the nature areas, and end our session with a tea ceremony.

More information and details will be sent via email.
