Cane Stone Weaving with Mindful Objects

£65.00

Join Flik from Mindful Objects at Kindred House for a workshop in the art of stone weaving. In this workshop you will make your own cane wrapped stone using centuries old Japanese basketry knots and weave together in the kinship of community.

We will be using basketry as a tool for mindful practice, to instil a sense of calm and balance, joining together to create and connect in a restorative way.

During the workshop, there is an invitation to inquiry. To observe, feel and sense the texture, temperature and lifeforce of the stones in all their beauty and to participate and feel ‘in relationship with’ the natural world. By engaging our senses, we actively participate in observing our relationship with the more-than-human world. This is a practive of mindfulness where we are able to feel part of the natural world and grounded within the larger presence and web of life.

Deepening our connection with nature through practices of presence and artfulness can be the beginning of reweaving these roots of connection we may have lost and often profoundly changes how we experience the world, treat each other, the natural world and ourselves.

The workshop is limited to 8 places to ensure a safe working environment. There are 6 standard tickets and 2 subsidised tickets at a supported price. This is based on a ‘pay it forward model’ - ‘I respond to a persons kindness by being kind to someone else’. This is to allow for different budgets and also an invitation to acknowledge privilege and pay what is right in a system that is deeply unequal.

Subsidised Tickets are available for people on low incomes or under any circumstance where the rate of the workshop makes it inaccesible. Places are applied for on a case-by-case basis. Please just send us an email.

If dates need to change due to Covid, you’ll be able to swap to the new date or obtain a refund if you’re unable to make the new date. Otherwise tickets are non-refundable.

Should you wish to book in to stay a night with us at Kindred House for this event, please send us a request through our booking enquiry form. Alternatively you can also book our Meditative Creative Retreat Weekend for an all-inclusive two-night stay at Kindred House with full access to both our weekend workshops.

During our events, the guest house is reserved for the attendees who receive a 15% discount on their stay. Rooms are limited & tend to get booked quickly so get in touch early to avoid disappointment.

Flik’s workshops are interwoven with her work as an artist weaving roots of remembrance of our interrelationship with Earth through the practice of basketry. Flik is inspired by the wisdom of what stone can teach us about slowing down our minds to bring balance and harmony into our lives, as well as being a teacher of how to exist among all living systems in harmony and balance.

In many cultures the stone is still revered as a symbol of calmness, holding many teachings from our Earth Mother, it’s simply that in the race of modernity many cultures forgot this. At the heart of Flik’s works is the understanding that each stone has journeyed millions of years before us and already has a story to tell.
