Meditative clay course – Hand built tea ceremony set

In this 3 session course, you will combine clay and meditation making a collection of 3 hand built cups and a teapot unique to you, that will inspire mindful and meditative moments for the years ahead. 

A holistic-retreat-style creative session, where you can relax, slow down and reconnect with yourself. 

The session will start with an introduction to meditative breathing practices and using clay as a tool for relaxation and wellbeing. 

We will begin with breath – mind – body connection, establishing a relaxed atmosphere, inviting into the space a sense of tranquility, openness and grounding. 

The guided clay sessions explore basic hand-building techniques, such as pinch pot, slab and coil building, together with simple practices for improving physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. 

The process of making will be our main focus , we will explore the transformative power of relaxation and connection, accessed through the doors of creativity. 

The session will finish with a short closing meditation and optional sharing circle. 

The tea set you make will be perfect for creating your own daily rituals or special moments of inspiration.
