Join me for a moment of stillness and harness the energy of this magical, dark-enveloped day of Winter. We will sink into breath work, mindful movement, yoga Nidra and an immersive sound bath all held and guided by the heart opening magic of ceremonial cacao. Winter Solstice marks a wonderful portal of remembering the year that has passed, letting go and initiating the year ahead.
We will gather fire-side, in the circle of the yurt and find our still as we transition the rush and heightened energy of Autumn into the hibernation of Winter. Winter is a time of deep rest, quiet, survival, darkness and moving within - it’s a stark contrast to what we have constructed around our modern day December festivities! Can you gift yourself this wind down amidst the rush of the outside world?
Our circle will open with a heart-expanding mug of ceremonial cacao. Cacao is deeply luscious, a succulent blessing for the heart chakra. She raises your emotional frequency, often inducing ecstatic feelings of love and creativity. We will follow this with some Kundalini inspired mindful movement as we allow Mama Cacao to get to work. We will then take a little time to share (if you feel like it) and to write out what we are releasing from 2021 - which we shall then gift to the fire for transformation, before a specially chosen meditation to ground in our new intentions for 2022, a guided yoga Nidra and deeply restorative crystal sound bath.
As we will be in person, in the yurt, spaces are limited, so this shall be an intimate gathering of 11.
Price £50pp for our 3 hours of sacred space, mug of cacao, a specially curated oil blend to use and box of festive treats to take home.

NOTE:
Please be aware that antidepressants are a contraindication when working with cacao. You should not consume ceremonial cacao if you have a heart indication. If you are taking any medication, please consult your doctor/ health practitioner before ingesting cacao. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or sensitive to caffeine and stimulants please let me know in advance. If any of the above apply, you are still very welcome to join and connect, and you can use an alternative drink for the ceremony and I will send you some beans to work with.
This is not a traditional Mayan ceremony by any means, but is a beautiful way of partnering with Ceremonial-Grade Cacao to provide a safe and sacred space for opening the heart, emotional healing, connection, creativity and calming the nervous system
