Join local artist, Lucy Voelcker for this 2.5hr workshop in the beautiful Weleda gardens and explore how to connect with your animal guide.In many cultures people live their lives in communication with other-than-human companions. Some believe that each of us have at least one primary Animal ally, and perhaps others at various times, as well as visits from any number who wish to share their wisdom with us as we reach and overcome obstacles, decisions etc. It is not uncommon to find your Animal companion has been speaking to you in your dreams, sometimes stretching back to childhood.When we Journey to meet our Animal Guide we choose to seek out this support. Even if it is the first time we have embarked on a quest of this sort, we agree to lay our doubt aside, and trust our imagination. Doing this in a Circle, holding intention together, is very helpful. As facilitator, I will guide you through with a meditation, and use my drum to help to hold focus.FFI and to book CLICK HERE
Join local artist, Lucy Voelcker at this Plant Dreaming Workshop held at the Weleda Gardens, and get to know nature a little better.
There is no need for you to be botanically knowledgeable, only to trust your imagination and willingness to explore. Together we seek to discover our own authentic dialogue with Nature. Lucy opens the workshop with suggestions and guidance to tap into your senses and imagination in order to meet the chosen plant or tree.There’s extended time to revisit the plant, our perception enhanced by shared insight. Some people like to sketch while others may prefer to connect with the plant in other ways which Lucy can help you explore. Where appropriate, we share tea made with an infusion of the plant.FFI and to book CLICK HERE

Following the ideas of Goethe and working as a group, we’ll be observing Arnica’s ‘personality’ and seeing how a plant’s therapeutic uses can be revealed by the way it grows.
We’ll discover lots of aspects about this amazing plant that we didn’t know before, as well as forging new connections to the wider plant world. Lunch & Refreshments are included in the price FFI and to Book click here
