Contemplative Flower Arranging

day-sit

A two-hour in-person event exploring flower arranging as contemplative practice, drawing on Ikebana principles. Open to all.

About this retreat

This is a single afternoon session, not a seated meditation retreat. The center frames flower arranging itself as the practice — a way to cultivate presence and direct attention through the act of placing blooms. The structure draws from Ikebana, the Japanese formal tradition, but adapted here as a two-hour contemplative activity rather than a technical workshop.

The center has not published pricing, a teacher name, or detailed schedule information. Contact appamada directly for registration details and what materials or experience (if any) are expected.
