treehouse temple of healing arts
a place where our inner children play
The Treehouse Temple of Healing Arts is a sacred space where creativity, ancestral reverence, play, and medicine are offerings to the divine.
reclaiming our power
In order to perpetuate itself, every oppression must corrupt or distort those various sources of power within the culture of the oppressed that can provide energy for change.

a care practice for all our relations
We sit at the feet of the elders and generations before us, human and more-than-human kin. We reclaim the old folkways in order to serve our communities and heal at the root of illness: structural oppression.
the child and the tree
The character 李 Lee contains 木 wood/plant and 子child/seed. Camellia is a flower that blooms in winter, part of a species that gives us the gift of tea and medicine.
My practice is the blossoming of seeds my ancestors planted generations ago. Even as I reach for the heavens, a plant always needs to nourish its roots.
This is sacred work, and this is why our school is a temple.
In my practice, healing and artistry are inseparable from ritual and intergenerational community work. Often, the little ones and the elders are my greatest teachers. In the treehouse, we create, study, play, and heal.
