About This Event

Join us for an immersive evening of tapping into different healing modalities of the Haitian Dyaspora inspired by the "lakou". In Haitian culture, the "lakou" is much more than a communal living space. It is an idea that guides how Haitian people show up for each other and for themselves. The "lakou" is also a space for learning the wisdom that you need to heal yourself. For Haitians in the Dyaspora, the "lakou" plays an even more essential role of helping folks heal the disconnect that comes from being physically away from the land of Ayiti. Join us for an immersive evening of tapping into different healing modalities of the Haitian Dyaspora. Guests will be able to participate in the following activities lead by Haitian women healers and spiritualists: Flower essences workshop Haitian candle carving workshop Essential oils workshop Haitian Tea workshop Prior registration is required for admission to this event.
