Come and join good people for an afternoon of celebration, reflection, meditation, music making singing, learning and sharing with Deborah Treger and Rufus Glassco.
“The places where water comes together with other water. Those places stand out in my mind like holy places.” ? Raymond Carver
We are delighted to invite you to a unique nature sanctuary to attend a ceremony dedicated to water, the source of all life on this planet. A place where the rain and the spring water from deep in the Oak Ridges Moraine have come together to start their journey back to the sea.
How important to you is water? How often do you think about the water you drink? How often do you thank the water you drink, or ingest it with mindfulness, love and gratitude?
Does water have memory? If it does, what does that mean to us?
This afternoon of ceremony will have several components. One is to raise our consciousness about water, to discuss why it is important to care about protecting water, and how we can improve our health and wellness with a better understanding of water. We will also be conducting water rituals, to honour water’s sacredness, throughout time, and across many cultures. We will also bless water, cleanse ourselves with water in guided meditation, and honour water through song and intention.
We will also be offering heart-healthy, crystal clean hard water from the Oak Ridges Moraine aquifer, in glass jars, or people can bring their own bottles to refill.
Come to learn, to share, to drink, to bless and honour water, and to return home fully hydrated and flush with new knowledge and tools to empower you to live healthier, to educate others, and develop a more sacred relationship with this precious resource. We are what we drink. Drink well!
This event is family friendly, and because it is a ceremony, we ask that people refrain from consuming alcohol or recreational drugs.
