Ceremonies included:
Meditation and Light Language Activations
Light language is a form of expression that is believed to convey meaning and healing on a deeper, energetic level. It is often described as a non-verbal, multidimensional form of communication that is thought to be encoded with high-frequency energy and information from higher dimensions. Those who speak or interpret light language believe that it can facilitate spiritual growth, energetic activation, and healing by connecting individuals with their higher selves and the universal energies. Light language can take various forms, including spoken sounds, hand gestures, symbols, or artwork, and is often considered to be a powerful tool for expanding consciousness and promoting personal transformation.
Balancing the Chakra System and the Inner Earth
The concept of the inner Earth dimensions has been linked to the human chakra system in many spiritual traditions. Some believe that the Earth's core is energetically connected to the chakras, serving as a source of grounding and vitality. In this view, the Earth's energy is thought to influence the balance and alignment of our own chakras, helping to maintain harmony within our physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies. By harmonizing with the energies of the inner Earth, it's said that individuals can enhance their chakra health an overall well-being, fostering a deeper connection to the natural rhythms of the planet and the whole universe.
Balancing and aligning the chakra system deepens your spiritual awareness, fostering a stronger connection to one's higher self, and facilitating personal growth and transformation. It is also believed that balanced chakras can positively influence physical health by supporting the body's natural healing processes, strengthening the immune system, and enhancing overall vitality.
Sound Bath Journey
A sound bath is a therapeutic and immersive experience where participants are bathed in the soothing sounds and vibrations produced by various musical instruments. During a sound bath session, participants lie down or sit comfortably while the facilitator creates a meditative and serene atmosphere by playing instruments like crystal singing bowls, Tibetan singing bowls, gongs, chimes, and other overtone-emitting tools.
The sounds and vibrations generated by these instruments have a calming and harmonizing effect on the mind and body. As the sounds wash over you, they create a sensory experience that can lead to deep relaxation, stress reduction, and a sense of inner peace. The vibrations produced by the instruments resonate with the cells and tissues of the body, promoting physical relaxation and potentially releasing tension and discomfort.
Sound baths are often used as a tool for meditation, as the sounds can help quiet the mind and induce a meditative state. By focusing on the sounds and vibrations, participants are encouraged to let go of thoughts and worries, allowing for a deeper sense of presence and mindfulness.
In addition to the benefits for the mind and body, sound baths can also have a profound effect on the spirit. Many people report feeling a greater connection to their inner selves, expanded awareness, and a heightened sense of spirituality during and after a sound bath.
Overall, a sound bath offers a unique and therapeutic experience that combines the power of sound, vibration, and mindfulness to promote relaxation, balance, and holistic well-being.
Ceremonial Cacao Circle
100% Pure Ceremonial Cacao is a special and sacred plant medicine for the heart that helps us open up and heal gently while inviting more creativity, joy, and love into our lives. Cacao is an ancient plant medicine of the heart used by natives throughout Central and South America for at least 5,000 years, and it is now making its way out into the Western world to connect us back to ourselves: our bodies, our spirits, and the earth.
By setting intentions with each cup of cacao, you receive messages for your life where you would like healing or guidance. The ceremony provides a space and a structure to reconnect, take a step away from the hustle of daily life, and intentionally enter into a state of sacred openness. Ceremonial practices can honor and mediate experiences with plant medicines by providing a container for the experience extended through communal support.
We will join in a circle, learn about the power of cacao, explore the energies of this time, go through a guided drum journey, and come back to a sharing circle to have an opportunity to share your experience.

The photographs you will receive after will be a physical representation of your inner transformation you experience over the weekend.
