Your weekly doorway to calm: Painting Portals: Shamanic Art & Sound Therapy (May 21)

The Hook

Big Island scene

Ever wanted to paint what your spirit feels like—while crystal tones wash over you? Picture golden hour, the air soft and warm, and your brush moving like a quiet breath.

Painting Portals: Shamanic Art & Sound Therapy isn’t a one-off. It’s a weekly practice you can return to—your midweek reset, your pau hana soul bath. Come when you can, or make it your standing date with yourself.

What to Expect

You’ll step into a gentle, ceremonial container where phones go quiet, voices soften, and intention leads. Alicia opens space, you ground, and the group field gets calm and kind—like being held by ʻohana you just met.

Then paint flows. Not “stay in the lines” painting—intuitive, color-first, feeling-forward strokes. Between layers, soothing sound healing elements hum through the room. Think bowls, chimes, and that deep exhale you didn’t realize you were holding.

The sun drifts toward sunset, the smell of plumeria rides the breeze, and your canvas becomes a little portal you can take home.

The People

Guided by facilitator Alicia Sunflower, this circle blends shamanic art process with sound therapy in a way that feels both grounded and magical. She’s skilled at reading the room, keeping it safe, and nudging you past the mind-chatter into honest expression.

Veteran attendees talk about leaving lighter, with a canvas that somehow mirrors a truth they couldn’t put into words. New folks are welcomed like cousins—no art background needed, just a curious heart.
