What to expect?

Cacao

To open the space we will spend time sitting with and receiving the delicious warming nourishment and medicine of Cacao, helping us to connect to the earth of our bodies + the presence of our hearts. This wonderful plant has been working with humans to inspire harmony, encourage connection, illuminate wisdom + uplift our spirits for thousands of years. Working with her intentionally and respectfully, she becomes the perfect ally to bring into our dance. Not only will drinking this sacred plant bring you energy to move with, but she’ll also potentialise your intentions and work on the subtle layers of energy within you to bring healing, love and kindness to whatever it is that you’re moving with in your life right now.

There are some contraindications to drinking Cacao - if you are currently taking anti-depressants or experiencing low blood pressure, please get in touch to discuss a dose that will best support you.

Movement

Join us in a free-form movement meditation allowing you to drop deeply into your body and respond instinctively to music. We will go on a magic carpet ride of ambient, euphoric and soul-stirring world beats. Reya's movement sessions are free-moving, non-judgemental spaces for you to fully express yourself in the present moment, whatever that looks like for your body - you do not have to move in a particular way or in a particular rhythm... You do YOU! Reya is passionate about creating a space where everyone can feel at ease dancing consciously and messily!

Sound

Sound therapy has been used as a healing tool for thousands of years. It aids stress reduction by breaking up emotional blockages within the body and eases you into a state of meditation.

Christina's soundscapes create a progressive journey to allow for energetic shifts and offer you a deeper sense of calm. Using breathwork, gongs, singing bowls, vocal and percussion, the frequencies promote healing throughout the entire body and mind.

Sound healing allows for:

• Relaxation of the body and mind
• Clearing of energetic and physical blockages
• Relaxation of the nervous system
• A sense of calm
• Lowered blood pressure
• Improved sleep
• A deep state of meditation

What to bring/wear?

• A small cup for cacao
• Comfortable clothes + layers - you might get warm during the movement but the church is a big old building so bring cosy things for when we are still. Your body temperature will probably drop during the sound healing session - bring warm things!!
• Yoga mat / sheepskin to lie on, pillows, eye bag… all the comfy cosy things!
• Water bottle
• Journal + pen
