Doctor Kamila Kwasniewska is running a series of workshops based in Trinity College Botanic Gardens at Dartry, Dublin 6 (nearest Luas Station, Milltown) focusing on exploring the intrinsic connectedness to nature by using our senses in the mindful practice of forest bathing. Each workshop will also explore how nature brings meaning to our lives and will help to spark creativity. Course participants will learn to harness this creative spark by creating seasonal flower arrangements (Summer Ikebana, Floral Halloween Pumpkin, Winter Christmas Wreath and Spring Easter Centrepiece) to find beauty and meaning through artful expression. All floral materials are included in the workshop.
Kamila is a botanist, florist, certified forest bathing guide, and founder of Nature To Go. She aims to connect people with nature through five pathways: senses, emotion, beauty, meaning and compassion.
Upcoming are two Summer Workshops - June and August, Autumn 2024 - October and Winter early December:
