Embrace the season of Metal, also known as the season of grief in Traditional Chinese Medicine through a guided grief journey intended to create a sense of beauty and renewal while gently letting go.

In this gathering, we’ll commune with nature and the elements with our beloved flower essence grief potion. This potion becomes a companion in helping us soften and expand as we embark on a letting go meditation to help us express our newfound insights through art and storytelling. We’ll close our shadow journey with a baci ritual.

Join us for an enriching experience to embrace our lives, our grief, and our joys.

Ticketed options: event entry + a pre-purchased grief potion at a discounted rate or an event entry ticket with the option to purchase a grief potion IRL at full price.

Location: Studio DDLA at 944 Chung King Rd, Los Angeles, CA 90012. For any questions, please email Mangda at hello@bacii.co.
