This Saturday’s special pop-up is a gentle introduction and lead-in to an upcoming half-day workshop with interdisciplinary artist Clare Benson and sound + wellness practitioner Suzanne Toro. Combining sound healing, expressive arts (working with clay), and nourishing alchemical tea, you will be guided on a journey of self-reflection, tending to unprocessed grief or emotions, and navigating change with love and connection — to self, the earth, and our ancestors.We will also share details about the longer half-day experience planned for early summer.

The sunflower blooms as a symbol of divine feminine freedom, abundance, and creation…its sacred chambers mirroring the temple within. Far from the myths labeling seed oils “bad,” organic cold-pressed sunflower oil is a healing gift: tridoshic in Ayurveda (balancing Vata, Pitta, Kapha), rich in vitamin E, and supportive for skin rejuvenation, hormone balance, liver detox, heart health, and energy channels. Cold-pressed and organic preserves nutrients ideal for body oils, dressings, or topical use (if you can eat it, you can apply it.). Grounding in spring to clear stagnation, it’s nature’s ally year-round. Question the sound bites…embrace the sunflower’s truth.

Tom Yum Kai
by adminTom Yum Kai (also known as Tom Yum Gai) is a vibrant, aromatic Thai hot and sour chicken soup that bursts with bold flavors: tangy lime, fiery chilies, fragrant lemongrass, galangal, and kaffir lime leaves. This clear broth-based soup features tender chicken pieces, mushrooms, and fresh herbs, delivering a perfect balance of spicy, sour, salty, and subtly sweet notes.This is one of my favorite soups, especially in the colder months. It is a true testament to the infamous quote, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food” by Hippocrates.
