La Cura
(Inspired by the salsa song by Frankie Ruiz)
This month, Chef Roberto of
@urbanpilon
will be joining us and leading a cooking workshop for men. Afterwards, Edwin of
@springstreamacupuncture , will be prviding NADA (ear acupunture).
Description:
La Cura is more than a cooking workshop—it’s a return to ancestral wisdom. Across Las Américas, generations have gathered in kitchens and patios not just to eat but to heal. In these spaces, food becomes medicine, ritual, and remembrance.
This offering is dedicated to supporting men in tending to susto—a condition understood in many of our traditions as a disturbance or loss of the spirit caused by shock, fear, emotional overwhelm, or PTSD.
Through intentional cooking, shared meals, and acupuncture, we gently support the regulation of the nervous system, reconnect with the body, and restore balance.
This is a space for men to slow down, to feel, and to reconnect with themselves, with community, and with the wisdom carried through generations in comida.
Food will be provided, just come as you are.
Come cook, learn, share, and restore.
All men are welcome.
Flow:
12pm- Welcoming
12:10 pm: Cooking
1:10pm- Eating & Intentional conversation
1:30pm-2:15pm: NADA (Ear Acupuncture)
Hope to see you ahi!
