About this episode

The episode explores the theme of impermanence through a nature-based community art project led by Rev. Jennifer Alviar.

Jennifer Alviar, Cedars Guest Minister Nancy Philip, Worship Associate Impermanence is difficult for the mind to grasp and the heart to accept. Come join us as we co-create an earth mandala together. May this nature-based community art form guide us in the spiritual practice of letting go with more grace. Rev. Jennifer Alviar is a Unitarian Universalist minister who designs rituals for healing and renewal in sacred and civic spaces. Her calling is to bring more intentionality to daily life by uplifting the simple, ordinary moments in the natural world with an eye toward beauty, wonder and awe.
