Flower Songs events focus on creative expression and community connection in Austin, Texas and across the globe. We welcome people from all walks of life to join in and enjoy each other’s gifts. Stay updated through our Facebook Group, and visit our Song Index to sing along.
In our circles, we practice generous listening. This involves openness, empathy, and a deep commitment to understanding the speaker’s perspective. It engages wordlessly with the speaker, setting aside personal biases or judgments, and creating a safe space for honest communication. In this way, our presence might be the spark that ignites a creative fire.
“I learned so much by observing and listening to all who shared—it became less about performing and more about how to connect to others through authentic expression of the heart.”—Shelly Searle
