Farm Events
Elysian Sanctuary Farm LLC offers herbal classes, gardening workshops, and events immersed in mindfulness.
Herbalism Workshop
Saturday, June 28 @ 11am
This upcoming workshop will explore the relationship between personal constitution and plant energetics, offering a deeper understanding of how herbs can support balance within the body. Together, we will discuss the ways plants interact with different constitutions and why certain herbs may feel nourishing and restorative for one individual while not being the best fit for another.
This class is an invitation to listen more closely to the body, reconnect with the wisdom of traditional herbalism, and begin viewing plants through the lens of energetic harmony and individualized support.
*Registration required, as space is limited.

The intention of our herbal educational opportunities is essentially to connect individuals with the knowledge of herb energetics and educate individuals in supporting balance and wellbeing of the mind, body, & spirit. Herbalism carries timeless traditions and spans many cultures with an understanding that plants carry powerful, medicinal value to help support the various systems within the body in times of balance, as well as in times of imbalance and deficiency.

Coming Soon: Herbal Sensory Circle
A Spiritual Immersion into Plant Medicine
A deeper connection with plants begins within the heart. Join us as we create intentional moments to connect with herbs and their healing energy.
Herbal Sensory Circles are herbalism workshops with a focus on connecting with plants from a sensory (touch, taste, energy) perspective.
SereniTEA Ceremonies
Immerse yourself in the healing experience of herbal tea and sound therapy.
SereniTEA Ceremonies from Elysian Sanctuary Farm LLC are seasonal events on the property. These events are a blend of herbal and energetic healing with handcrafted teas created with intention, along with the vibrational healing of quartz crystal singing bowls. These events currently take place during warmer seasons on the sanctuary grounds.
What is Sound Therapy?
Sound therapy, also known as vibrational therapy/healing or sound healing, has been used for thousands of years in traditional medicine cultures to relax the mind, body, and spirit, and to aid the body back into harmony. Research has shown that sound therapy can have a direct, positive influence on our emotional and psychological health.
Sound/Vibrational therapy has many benefits including balancing the etheric body, stimulating healing within the body, reducing stress or pain, supporting cognitive function, increasing circulation, and more.
The crystal singing bowls that Belinda plays carry such beautiful, ethereal tones, surrounding you with gentle sound healing that relaxes the mind and uplifts the spirit. She plays these singing bowls at SereniTEA Ceremonies. Private sound therapy sessions are available and can be booked.
Malbert Lee, a Hong Kong-based Crystal Bowl and Gong Master, says vibrations are especially useful for healing the body. “The adult body is 75% water, and water is a great conductor for sound vibration,” he notes. “When vibrations travel through the body, they promote circulation, energy flow, and rejuvenation. The frequency of the sound synchronizes with the brainwaves and activates destress responses in the body.” source: https://destinationdeluxe.com/sound-healing-health-benefits/
Reiki Master, Belinda Sigstad, gently infuses Reiki within the sound healing experience, too, increasing the frequency and healing effect.
