As migrants, we may feel disconnected from our cultural roots and struggle to find a sense of home in a new land. However, there are ways to reconnect and rediscover our identities, even when miles away from our homeland. Chinese calligraphy practice can be one such path to finding belonging and connection. Join us for our calligratherapy workshop, where you can learn to write your name in Chinese properly and discover the beauty and meaning behind this ancient art form. Let's rediscover our cultural identities together!

🌼 Mindfulness Calligraphy Event on a Residential Rooftop Garden

Last Friday, we hosted an unforgettable event on a residential rooftop garden- a perfect summer evening with like-minded individuals who came together to practice mindfulness and connect through collaborative calligraphy and ink art.

The tranquil and serene setting of the rooftop garden provided the perfect backdrop for the event. The sound of the breeze, the aroma of fresh flowers, and the stunning view of the city skyline added to the overall experience.

At this event, we focused on writing and painting bamboo while exploring its philosophical meaning in Eastern culture. We used the art of calligraphy to express ourselves mindfully and connect with each other in a supportive and encouraging environment.

The unique activity of Chinese calligraphy and ink art brought out our creativity and allowed us to express ourselves through mindful strokes and ink art. It was a beautiful blend of mindfulness, art, and community, where we shared our experiences and learned from each other.

Practicing mindfulness has numerous benefits for our mental and physical well-being, including stress reduction, increased focus, improved sleep quality, and overall feelings of positivity and happiness.

If you missed out on this amazing experience, do not worry - we have more events planned. Join us for our upcoming event, where we will explore the significance of the Lotus flower in Eastern culture and use calligraphy to express ourselves mindfully.

The Chinese character 稳 (wěn) means 'surely' or 'steady', and is a reminder to take the time necessary to do things right. Its composition, formed by combining two symbols, further emphasizes its meaning. On the left is 禾 (hé), which represents 'grain'; while on the right is 急ji (jí), signifying 'rush' or 'hurry'. Literally it means if you're growing rice, you know that it takes time from planting until harvest - around six months - any attempting to speed up the process will only lead to withering of the grain and stress on your part.

The Chinese character “静” is a unique symbol that carries a special wisdom - one that has been passed down for thousands of years. It is composed of two distinct characters. On the left, the symbol represents sky blue, which is thought to be associated with tranquility and peace. On the right, it represents competition - a reminder that in stillness and serenity lies strength for achieving success. Together they create a reminder that in stillness and quietude lies the strength to compete, and through it we can focus our energy more effectively to achieve success.
