ESSENCE :: COTTONWOODGather in the Hudson Valley for an in-person essence proving circle. Together, we’ll attune to and explore one flower or tree essence over the course of a month — deepening our relationship with it, opening our senses, and connecting in community. This is a slow, contemplative space where we journey together with intention and receptivity.
In exchange for sharing your findings, you’ll receive a complimentary 1oz bottle of Cottonwood tree essence, support during our opening and closing ceremonies, and ongoing guidance throughout the month for any questions or reflections that arise.
