On December 14th from 11amâ2pm, Selena and I of Haus of Fruitz & Flowerz are coming together with Keep Growing Dreams, ZEN:MNM, and the cozy sanctuary of ZENhĹm for our next Black joy gathering.
This month, we are leaning into the darkest part of the year not with fear, but with softness. Winter invites us to slow down, to turn inward, and to nourish the places within us that don't always get tended to. So we're creating a warm, intimate space where our minds, bodies, and spirits can be fed, held, and replenished.
Together, we will share a grounding brunch, sip warm seasonal drinks, craft intention ornaments to carry into the new year, receive Reiki and sound healing, and close with an intentional journaling journey led by Marcus Lattimore of ZEN:MNM. Every offering is designed to support rest, reflection, and the gentle planting of seeds for the bloom ahead.
This gathering is part of the Black Joy Series presented by Keep Growing Dreams & in partnership with Unite Oregon and the Black Healing Center, a space created for those who identify as Black and/or of the African diaspora to come together, reconnect, and remember that joy, rest, and healing are ours to claim.
This is a come-on-time event, as we will be moving through each experience as a collective.
The event is free, and space is limited so we encourage you to RSVP soon if this moment is calling to you. We can't wait to slow down with you, to breathe with you, and to enter the winter season in community and care.
