Between Heaven & Earth: A Mindful Calligraphy Practice

Exploring Ikebana As A Mindfulness Practice with Anjie Cho

Hosted by the Shambhala Meditation Center of New York

What happens when you bring your full presence to a single brushstroke?

Step into the quiet space where brush, breath, and being meet. In this immersive dharma art calligraphy class, we explore the ancient triad of Heaven, Earth, and Human—an energetic Taoist framework that reflects harmony within and around us. Through simple, meditative exercises, you’ll learn how to translate energy, emotion, and intention into ink on paper.

Through intentional mark-making, meditation, and guided reflection, you’ll experience calligraphy not as technique, but as a living practice of presence. Each stroke becomes a conversation: with the unseen (Heaven), the grounded (Earth), and your embodied self (Human).

Leave not only with artwork, but with a felt sense of connection and alignment you can carry into daily life. No experience is needed—only a willingness to slow down, listen, and let your brush reveal what is ready to emerge.
