The Summer has arrived and with it radiance, fire, and expression. Balance your wellbeing by turning inward with this fascial movement & Yin yoga workshop celebrating manifestation and change. Pranayama breathing excercises to restore harmony to the mind, body, and spirit — and balances the solar and lunar within us. Restore and balance our energy by encouraging us to turn inwards and towards stillness to counteract the late nights, long days, and lust for life that summer carries with it.

Yin Yoga is a slow, meditative style of yoga where passive postures are held for 3 to 10 minutes. It targets deep connective tissues (like fascia, ligaments, and joints) rather than muscles. The practice emphasizes stillness, using props like bolsters and blankets to comfortably relax the body

This work shop will start with a Ceremonial grade Cacao, revered and used for centuries as a "plant medicine" because of its heart-opening qualities and wide-ranging health benefits, Cacao added to your meditation practice is a powerful way to connect deeper with your sense of feeling, heart, and intuition.

ABOUT CACAO

ABOUT CEREMONIAL CACAO

Cacao was used in Ritual and Ceremony by our Mesoamerican ancestors and was considered sacred. It is interesting that the ritual and ceremonial use had been lost.
Cacao had been practically diluted beyond recognition into Chocolate confections with added fats and sugars which can detract from the magic.

There is a difference in vibration when you eat a dairy filled Chocolate bar compared to a minimally processed dark Chocolate.

Drinking Cacao in it's purest form allows a deeper connection to ourselves, our own intuition, knowing and inner guidance.

The joy of Cacao has recently been rediscovered in the western World, with people consuming it in a pure form and receiving support and messages from the Cacao spirit.

Cacao is regaining its reputation as a powerful yet gentle earth medicine.
