Welcome to Episode 007 of the Glitter and Sage podcast! Today’s episode features a heart-centered conversation with Connie Dasilva, on all things plant magic, including some amazing upcoming events in Kingston!

GUEST BIO:

Connie Dasilva loves introducing people to plants in new and interesting ways. She founded Whole Clarity, a plant based skincare line in 2013 and has since evolved the brand into a Plant Based Design Firm creating custom nature based art and biophilic interior design. Most recently she launched Dance With Plants, combining wellness and nature with the electronic music party scene in Kingston NY. 

IN THIS EPISODE:

-Connie tells us about the evolution of her offerings

-We reminisce on some of the previous magical Dance With Plants events

-We talk about different heart opening plants that are great for party gatherings as an alternative to alcohol

-Connie shares about Concrete Jungle, her outdoor venue in Kingston on the Hudson River, and some of the upcoming (and Covid-safe) events

-Connie gives us the breakdown of the Photosynthesis event April 27, produced by Dance With Plants, NY Photobus, and Haüs of Peculiar, where Cosmal is playing a set (the intro/outro music to the podcast is Cosmal’s beautiful song “Drishti”), Haus of Peculiar will be doing drag performances with fire spinning, and then we’re bringing the Quiet Hours Silent Disco, with music from BigMongo and MrAtwood (Quiet Hours co-founder and producer of this podcast!)

-We share exciting news about a ticket giveaway for Photosynthesis! Head to the Dance With Plants Instagram to enter to win 3 tickets to the event!

-Connie gives inspiration for different ways we can connect with plant energy at home, from filling our spaces with plants, to working with tinctures of different plants

-She shares so many great plant-care tips, and we also go over some safety tips if you have any pets at home, some plants and essential oils can be toxic to animals!
