1 Day Grounding Retreat | Earth-Building, Mindfulness & Eco-Dyeing

Slow down, get muddy and create with nature

<p>My experience at Back to Earth was amazing! You get to learn all about how to build with earth and try it yourself. You also get to try natural dyeing on a scarf. They provide a delicious homemade lunch, coffees and snacks. The main thing was how lovely everyone was, I felt like I really learnt  how to be more grounded and appreciated slowing down and living a sustainable life. 10/10 best experience I had in Chiang Mai :)</p>
