LURUH — Return to Self

A Saturday morning to slow down, make jamu with your hands, and listen to what your body has been trying to tell you.
About this Event

There are moments when your body is speaking
but life moves too fast to listen

LURUH is a space to return

For one morning, you are invited to step out of routine and into a slower rhythm
where the body leads, and you follow

This is a guided ritual of remembering, tending, and returning to yourself

We begin inside

You will be welcomed with whole roots
turmeric, kencur, tamarind
raw, earthy, real

Before sitting, you are invited to wash your hands in warm infused water
a quiet transition from outside to within

You will be guided by an herbalist
through the roots and their purpose
warming and cooling
and how to feel what your body needs

Then, you will make your own jamu

Beras kencur
Kunyit asam

Not something prepared for you
something created by you
with your hands

We then move outside to the patio

You will sit with your drink
pause
and be guided through a short body awareness

We drink together

One breath
one moment

Afterward, you will be given a single journaling prompt
to listen deeper
to what your body has been holding

We close in a quiet circle

You will leave with a small takeaway
jamu ingredients, a recipe, and something to return to

This experience is intentionally limited to a small group to preserve its intimacy

Come as you are
Leave closer to yourself
