Tuesday 23rd 6-8pm
Join us at Hawthorn Holistic Health for a nourishing evening of flowers, acupuncture, meditation, nourishment, and seasonal connection in honor of the Summer Solstice. Together, we will co-create a living flower mandala using fresh blooms, herbs, mushrooms, seeds, and natural elements inspired by the vibrant energy of early summer and the Fire element.
Across many cultures and traditions, mandalas have been created as symbols of wholeness, balance, prayer, reflection, and connection to the natural world. The process of building a mandala can become a form of moving meditation — an opportunity to slow down, create with intention, and enter a more grounded and present state through color, texture, pattern, and the quiet language of plants. Working collaboratively with natural materials invites mindfulness, creativity, beauty, and a deeper awareness of the season unfolding around us.
Following the mandala creation, guests will settle into a restorative community acupuncture and guided meditation experience designed to support relaxation, nervous system regulation, reflection, and connection. Treatments will focus on calming the mind, opening the heart, and aligning with the expansive energy of the season.
Throughout the evening, Dr. Lindsay Chimileski will share gentle teachings on the symbolism and energetics of the plants woven into the mandala, creating a grounded and sensory experience that blends creativity, ritual, and holistic care.
No artistic experience needed.
Held at Hawthorn Holistic Health in Hamden, CT.
Space is limited to maintain an intimate and restorative atmosphere.
