Love Blooms in the Spring
Love Blooms in the Spring: A Night of Sound and Story
During this mythic evening, storyteller Ingrid Norton and sound artist Sabine Feuilloley join together to invigorate our energy and imagination. Norton will retell the ecstatic, messy, and passionate love story of the goddess Inanna and her husband Dumuzi, who returns every spring from the underworld, weaving in other mythic stories of springtime and rebirth. Feuilloley will accompany the myth with a full range of instruments and lead a tonifying sound meditation as we gather our hearts and visions for the fresh season.
Come circle round in Reforester's garden room for an elemental evening of deep listening, dream-tending, and radical imagination.

Originally from France, Sabine Feuilloley has called New York home for over 30 years—a city whose energy and diversity have shaped both her personal life and professional journey.
Her path has been anything but linear, marked by resilience, reinvention, and revelations—from the fashion world to healthcare.
During her career in fashion, she discovered meditation, and later sound meditation. These practices became essential tools for balance and clarity in a fast-paced universe, and later inspired her to explore healthcare with a deeper sense of care and presence.
Trained with experienced practitioners, she brings a grounded and professional approach to every session while keeping the practice accessible, transformative, and deeply restorative.
