Living our Creative Spirit - Celebrating the harmony of feminine and masculine in us

Wisdom traditions from around the world have long asserted that all possess divine feminine and divine masculine energies. The interplay and balance of these energies can help us manifest our utmost creative potential. In this workshop we will explore our connection with feminine and masculine energies within us, beyond gender constructs and celebrate the wholeness of our beings .

Anyone above 18 years of age who is curious about exploring the relationship with one's inner creative spirit is welcome. We will discover how the balance of our masculine and feminine energies can enable us to find harmony- within ourselves, in our relationships and the world around us. The session is interactive where we will explore through creative visualization, visual arts and conversations.

This is the season of festivities -  gollu arrangements, dandiya, pujo - all celebrating feminine energies. Can we reinvent how we celebrate our festivals, find new meaning and create newer ways to rejoice in the gift of life? At Courtyard Koota reinventing tradition is one of our intentions, we hope you will join us on this journey, and who knows what we might find?
