MAY | Wreathing the Greens of Mid-Spring with Miah
Let's connect with our inner craftsperson for a ritual dedicated to herbal handiwork and making beauty in the world! Wreathing is an ancient process of twisting, encircling, and weaving plants into a circular shape. For our May ritual, we will work with herbs, flowers, and grasses to make uniquely personalized seasonal wreaths. What habits, attitudes, and ways of being are you seeking to twist, circle, and weave into your life? Let's wreathe our hopes, dreams, and prayers into reality!

Miah: craftsperson, educator, earth steward
My heart overflows with gratitude for the spirit guides and guardian angels who inspire me to make art and beauty in the world. I understand making as a process of energetic alchemy, where spirit becomes matter and ideas become reality. What type of world do we want to inhabit? Let’s build it!
I work as a social justice educator, Ethnic Studies professor, and scholar activist. In this way, I follow in the footsteps of my ancestors who made the path by walking it. I support the integration of indigenous knowledge with radical dreamwork to make a pathway for just transition and collective liberation.
