Cultivating Loving Presence

Tuesday, April 21st, 6-7:15pm. Ragle Park. Sebastopol, CA.

By Donation.

What does it mean to truly be present with another person — not just listening, but arriving fully, with an open and receptive heart?

In this 90-minute experiential workshop, we explore loving presence as a living practice — one that begins within ourselves and naturally extends outward into our relationships, our work, and the world.

We will move through the evening together gently and intentionally:

We begin with introductions, settling in and orienting to one another and to the space. From there, we drop into a 15–20 minute heart-centered meditation — an invitation to soften, open, and come home to the body and the breath.

Then, we practice what it feels like to offer and receive loving presence — and explore what gets in the way — to truly see and be seen.

We close with open sharing and Q&A, integrating what arose and carrying the practice forward.

This workshop is rooted in the understanding that our capacity to connect — authentically, warmly, and without agenda — is itself a form of healing. It's suitable for practitioners, healers, and those in service-based work, as well as all who are genuinely interested in cultivating loving presence in their lives.

No prior experience is needed. All levels are welcome. Come as you are.

Specific location will be provided upon registration. Space is limited to 8 people, please sign up in advance.

To sign up, please send Venmo to @RutaSegal or contact me here: ruta.segal@gmail.com

Additional Ways We May Work

As part of our work together, we can apply one or more of the practices listed below, to support your healing and transformation. If one of them calls to you now - let me know and I’ll keep that in mind for our session.

  • Close-up of a fountain pen writing on lined paper with black ink.

    Personal Mantra

    When you wish to anchor into a new way of being, we can co-create a mantra or prayer (which can become a poem or even a song) that aligns your life with your deepest longings.

    It’s helpful when you want to live intentionally, and are looking for a simple yet powerful daily practice.

  • Colorful swirling pattern with concentric circles, set against an outdoor backdrop of trees and a cloudy sky, with various pottery and art supplies on the ground.

    Medicine Art

    Medicine art emerges from a deep intuitive meditate space, where we tune into a question you hold—whether about a relationship, your work, home or health. You will have the option to draw the image you receive, and/or I can do it for you.

    It’s helpful for those who respond deeply to visuals and intuitive guidance.

  • A traditional Hindu or Indian religious ceremony with an altar on the ground. The setup includes burning logs, offerings, flowers, and various ceremonial items arranged around a fire.

    Custom Ritual

    Ritual is a powerful way to support transformation, honor beginnings and endings, and mark important moments in your life. Together, we will design a personal ritual for you and your loved ones.


    It’s helpful if you’re seeking change or navigating a transition in a conscious way.

  • A layered image of blooming flowers in the forest with tall trees in the background, featuring bright orange, yellow, pink, and white flowers.

    Flower Essences

    Flower essences harmonize your energetic field, balancing emotional, mental, and spiritual states. I will create a personalized flower essence blend for you to take home.

    They are helpful for people who are open to receiving gentle yet powerful support from plants, while navigating inner healing and life transitions.
