Meditative Hand Sewing Workshop:
Stitch Your Way to Calm
Meditative Hand Sewing ~ Stitch Your Way to Calm
w/ Deepika Prakash @ Revolution Community Yoga in Acton, MA
NEW DATE TBDSaturday, Jan. 31st • 5 – 7pm in the Waterfall Room
$40 early reg. • $50 day of workshop
This session invites participants to slowly stitch small squares of fabric together in a rhythmic, mindful way. Once you learn this simple method of creating a nine-patch square—free from decision fatigue—you can simply sew. These squares can later be made into a quilt, sewn on to existing clothes or other projects, mounted as artwork, or simply exist as they are.
The act of hand sewing is scientifically shown to lower stress hormones, calm the nervous system, and promote focus and relaxation—especially for those who find it difficult to sit still in traditional meditation.
Hand sewing engages both creativity and concentration, helping participants enter a natural state of flow.
No prior sewing experience is needed, and all supplies will be provided.
🧵 If you use reading glasses, please bring them with you.
