Your Hosts

Sussanna Czeranko, ND (Retired)
Naturopathic Doctor (Retired), Artist, and Co-Founder of Manitou Waters
Sussanna has been fascinated with fabric and colour for a long time.
About 35 years ago, she discovered felting which has a way of exploding your creative potential. Whether you learn how to make a pair of amazing slippers that will fit your feet perfectly or you design a one of a kind purse, your mind-body-spirit will dance in the doing.
Doll making is another passion that Sussanna brings to life with participants who want to explore the power of expression. The healing that comes when making a doll from a place of deep purpose and intention results in a transformative release from hindering and obstructive emotional baggage.
