Breathing with Mimosa: A Nature-Based Tea & Breathwork Journey

Join us for a powerful and heart-opening evening held by the energy of Mimosa (Albizia julibrissin)—a plant ally known for its ability to both uplift and soothe our heart!

• A Tea Ceremony & Plant Spirit ConnectionWe begin with a grounding tea ceremony led by Nora Luce of Critical Ritual, featuring Mimosa—a plant traditionally used to ease emotional heaviness and invite the heart into gentle spaciousness. Through guided meditation, you'll be invited to connect with the subtle, energetic presence of Mimosa, tuning into what it may offer you in this moment. We’ll explore both the spiritual energetics and traditional uses of this heart medicine.

• A Somatic Breathwork Journey Guided by Christy, this breathwork session is a powerful practice of active meditation that allows you to release stored tension, dissolve emotional blocks, and enter a deeper connection with your inner world. As Christy shares: “The breath is a healing modality that brings us into presence—where we are most at ease and able to access clarity, gratitude, peace, and joy. It connects us with our intuition, our Spirit, and the present moment.”

Whether you're new to herbalism and breathwork or seasoned in your practices, this session invites you into a deeper relationship with your body, heart, and spirit, while immersed in the natural beauty of the marsh’s edge.

• You feel called to work with plant spirit medicine in a sacred and embodied way
• You want to explore breathwork as a tool for deep release, self-awareness, and spiritual insight
• You long for grounded ritual and community in nature
