We'll begin with a little education about butterflies in the SW Florida region. I'll talk about their life cycle, breeding and feeding environments, as well as some challenges they face.

Next each guest will be equipped with their own color butterfly reference chart and water to have while we take a tour of the gardens. For those of you who are interested in drinking water that has real energy I'll also be offering crystal cocktails which is water infused with the energy of crystals.

So off we'll go to look for different butterfly eggs, caterpillars chrysalis formations, and plants that different species use as host plants, and those they use for food. Each time you come you'll see different things depending on time of year, weather conditions, and new plant beds that have been added or changed. This way you're guaranteed of a new experiential adventure each time you visit!

Once we've meandered through the gardens together everyone will go off on their own to explore. Along the way you'll surely come across many other wonderful treats direct from Mother Nature that you're sure to enjoy.

Just so you know, if while on your own exploring you choose to be silent (for any length of time) you're actually experiencing a powerful form of active meditation that I call "Nature Bathing". It has the same emotional and physical health benefits of sitting meditations, but you'll just feel like you're getting lost in the garden, moving around, fully experiencing life through all of your senses.

In this workshop you will receive education on succulents, succulent propagation, crystals and mandalas (ancient patterns and shapes used for sending love, light and our best intentions out into the world). 

We'll use mandalas as grids or templates upon which we will design and lay out our mandalas which will be made out of succulents, crystals and sacred shapes - all selected by you.

Included: Everything you'll need to create a gorgeous gemstone & succulent mandala - crystals, succulents and gridding templates, and all the knowledge you'll need to create hundreds, even thousands of mandalas from the one that you take home from this workshop. Oh yes, and you'll get a snack break too so don't worry about getting hungry.
