Aroma Zen：田園裡的感官留白

In this fast-paced city, our brains are overloaded with information every day, but we rarely have the opportunity to have a proper conversation with ourselves.

Smell is the only sense that can bypass logical thinking and directly reach the core of emotions (amygdala) and the center of memory (hippocampus). Therefore, scents are often more soothing to the soul than language.

In the tranquil setting of a century-old house in Kam Tin, we will open a door to inner peace for you. We will begin with the scent of the earth, harvesting herbs by hand and making hydrosols, combining mindful eating meditation with the healing power of singing bowls. In this half-day "shutdown time," you will clear away long-accumulated emotional impurities and rediscover your body's most primal rhythm.

Activity details:

11:00 - 13:00 | Aromatherapy Hydrosol Workshop

Let's slow down and not rush. Begin by walking into the herb garden and harvesting herbs by hand, experiencing the extraction of fresh hydrosol drop by drop, and then blending two aromatherapy products to soothe your current mood.

13:00 - 14:30 | [Contemplation] Mindfulness Eating Meditation and Countryside Walk

Enjoy a simple vegetarian meal in silence, connecting you with the earth. Practice mindfulness and savoring each bite, then experience the scents of soil and vegetation in a walking meditation, allowing your mind to return to the present moment.

14:30 - 16:00 | [Return to Silence] Singing Bowl Sounds and Summary

Let the low-frequency vibrations of the singing bowl envelop your entire body, combined with the aromatherapy prepared in the morning, to cleanse your mind of impurities. Finally, in a warm sharing session, gently return home with a peaceful power.
