"On our troubled planet, we must find ways to bring peace to our individual lives," Anthony Ward says. "In our circle of kindred spirits, the flowers and I will show you ways to do this."

This popular workshop is open to anyone who loves flowers and the natural world. Ward demonstrates his unique process for creating floral arrangements; we take walks to gather wildflowers, vines, branches, and leaves on the beautiful Omega grounds; other gorgeous flowers are brought in; and we create our own floral expressions of the divine.

"We also simply have fun!" Ward says. "To me, each flower is a masterpiece-flowers disarm us. When we look at a flower, we are looking at the manifestation of love.

Bring comfortable walking shoes and garden clippers.

Anthony Ward has created personal floral offerings for some of the world's most noted spiritual luminaries, including the Dalai Lama, Eckhart Tolle, and Thich Nhat Hahn. He has also created for entertainment icons Madonna, Bette Midler, and Ben Harper. His work has appeared in In Style, Modern Bride, and Spirituality & Health magazines and many newspapers worldwide. He has created floral sculptures on stage in performance with Bobby McFerrin, Michael Franti, and Spearhead, and for Nawang Khechog. beingwithflowers.com
