The practice of Kintsugi - repairing broken vessels by sealing the cracks, then painting them gold - is a remarkable art. The Japanese believe the golden cracks make the pieces even more precious and valuable. It's beautiful to think of this practice as a metaphor for your life, to see the broken, difficult, or painful parts of you as radiating light, gold and beauty. Kintsugi teaches you that your broken places make you stronger and better than ever before. When you think you are broken, you can pick up the pieces, put them back together, and learn to embrace the cracks. No experience is needed. Each attendee will leave with a beautiful Kintsugi bowl.
