SUMMARY:DIY Zen Tables for Mindfulness [Rock Row]
DESCRIPTION:Come and explore the ancient art of creating a Zen sand table – a miniature landscape designed to promote relaxation\, focus\, and mindfulness. Zen sand tables\, inspired by traditional Japanese Zen gardens\, use sand\, stones\, and small rakes to create serene scenes that encourage contemplation and calm.\nParticipants will be guided through the process of designing their own unique tables\, learning techniques to shape patterns in the sand that reflect inner peace and balance. This mindful activity is a wonderful way to quiet the mind\, release stress\, and cultivate tranquility.\nAll materials will be provided. This class is perfect for anyone seeking relaxation\, creative expression\, or a gentle introduction to mindfulness practices. No artistic experience is necessary!\n\nLed by Tricia Gilbert.\n\nOpen to adult Dempsey Center clients.
