Noble Dre*Ali is a multi-disciplined Visual Artist who has resided in The Bronx since the mid-1980s.

Being inspired by his older brothers’ interest in drawing and comic books as well as being exposed to colorful intricate Graffiti murals in his environment would serve as a foundation for his creativity.

He excelled in his High School (JFK) art programs and went on to Bronx Community College where he received an AA in Graphic Arts. He then attended Lehman College where he earned his BA in Studio Art. With this education, it allowed him to create comfortably in multiple mediums such as screen printing, sculpture, video editing/production, photography, computer animation, painting, drawing, stencils, and collage.

Noble thinks of his works as Spiritual Pop Art. He utilizes popular culture imagery then infuses it with spiritual symbols. His aim is to connect the ancient with the future beautifully.

Laughter meditation is a form of meditation that combines breathing exercises and laughter to promote a sense of well-being, joy, and relaxation. This type of meditation is also known as laughing yoga or laughter therapy, and it has become increasingly popular in recent years. Laughter meditation is an inner experience. When we laugh we are totally free. We can’t be in the past laughing, or in the future. Laughing brings us to the present moment. Laughter meditation is a cost-effective healing tool used to transform the present moment into child-like playfulness while honoring your inner child. Laughter meditation is strong preventative medicine and has a profound effect on the mind, body and spirit.

Did you know children can laugh up to 400 times a day, versus adults who laugh 15 times a day?

During a laughter meditation session, participants engage in laughter exercises that involve deep breathing, physical movements, and vocalizations. These exercises are designed to trigger laughter and create a positive, relaxed state of mind.

I was greeted by the sweet aroma of incense and freshly brewed tea when I arrived for my Fire Cider class. Dee immediately made me feel relaxed and comfortable as we settled into her backyard patio. She had everything lined up and beautiful displayed as she explained how each herb and fruit was healing to my body.

As I packed my mason jar with the various ingredients, I could not help but feel positive and empowered. The music of Bob Marley played in the background bringing good vibes  and energy. This experience was perfect for me and my journey. I recommend it to anyone that wants to enjoy the natural way to take care of your body with the guidance of a health educator. 

Kitchen work is alchemy work. It is the sacred place in your home where you can program your food to nourish and work for you. If we are not aware, the same can also happen in reverse; the kitchen can be a place that feeds us sickness and disease. Here is my kitchen alchemy process on how I create my food medicine andAQ charge my herbs and food to work for me and my family. Everybody has a different version of Fire Cider, mine has an alchemy element to it, a magical process that I want to share with you!

There are many beautiful crystals right here in the Bronx! We come across a lot of these crystals when we are hiking in Van Cortlandt Park. Working with crystals helps us to engage with the natural Earth energy to nourish our strengths and release what does not serve us. Crystals are a healing tool. Tools which help us to restore balance, and elevate consciousness. They can be used in many ways to address various challenges. Here are some of the crystals we have come across on the nature trails in the Bronx. We include these crystals with some of our products in the Gift Shop, be sure to check it out!

1. What type of art do you create? Pressed flower art 

2. How long have you been doing art for? 1 year 

3. Who are your creative influences: I’m really inspired by Frida Kahlo, more so by her as a person than her art. She was vibrant, full of color, brave, outspoken and an all around bad ass. She always found a way to create, despite her pain. The same with Billie Holiday, Thomas "Blind Tom" Wiggins and other creators who found artistic freedom during the darkest times of oppression or mental illness. Overall, I’m inspired by anyone who has the guts to create and put it out in the world.
