    flour.ish

     

    (verb) to grow or develop in a healthy or vigourous way, especially as the result of a particularly favourable environment.

     

     

    Summer is that time - often our most favourable environment where we can soak in sunlight and warmth.

     

    But we are also surrounded by increasing pressure, expectation, busyness, disconnection, noise, extraction, and injustice.

     

    Underneath that heaviness - what does flourishing even look like?

     

    🌸

     

    Nature can lead the way.

     

    Join us on Saturday, June 22nd, just after the Summer Solstice and the Strawberry Full Moon, for a co-created day that centers flourishing— for you and for us all.

     

     

    The day will feature time in the forest to build your connection, conversations to shift your perspective, organic flowers to spark your creativity, and many opportunities to open to new possibilities.

     

     

    We'd be honoured to have you join us.

    Date: Saturday June 22nd

     

    Optional morning forest bath & hike with Shannon Clarke in the area from 10:00 - 12:30pm (with a bring-your-own picnic lunch).

     

    The more formal (yet still casual!) facilitated gathering begins at 1 p.m. at the home of an Ember alum in Chelsea, QC (~ 30 min. from Ottawa) and wraps up at 8pm (with an optional jump in the lake!).

     

    The afternoon will include:

    • Sessions led by Jess to help you explore what flourishing looks like in your own life and the world
    • Organic flower arranging and flower teachings with Danielle Schami from Franktown House Flowers (you will leave with your own bouquet!)
    • Exploring the medicine wheel with Melissa Hammell
    • Exploring menstruality and cyclical living with Rachelle Latremouille from Lacuna Kitchen
    • Solstice communal dinner - everyone is asked to bring something vegetarian to contribute to the food for the day, and/or you can bring a beverage to share if you wish.

     

    Financial Contribution: $85 +HST

    Scholarships & bartering options available.

     

    Registration deadline is June 15th or when all spots are filled.

     

    The gathering is designed for both those new to the Ember Circle, and Ember Alums. Please invite friends!

  • "Jess is a great facilitator, very caring and open. The tools she provided and her insights helped me to think deeply about some of the key questions I am asking myself about who I am in the world, who I want to be, and how I can be more kind, compassionate, and invested in the people I love and the world around me."
