We use the cacao to reconnect to these elements both within and in the world around us. The focus is on developing reverence for the natural world, which includes our own bodies.
It has been long recognized throughout the Americas that Cacao, as a sacred plant medicine, is an ally here to help us reconnect with our hearts. Because it is here through the portal of our heart that we are able to more deeply connect with ourselves and to the natural world.

Surrender to your deepest restoration with a luxurious multi-sensory meditation.
Guided breathwork, luscious soundscapes and aromatic anchors are all part of this deeply immersive 1 hour experience, led by Brieann Boal. A meditation drawing on the therapeutic benefits of sound; a combination of frosted quartz crystal singing bowls, Koshi and energy chimes.
Walk into a candle-lit room of mats, bolsters, blankets and lavender eye pillows, wearing your most comfortable clothes. The intention is simply to rest. Lay back, close your eyes, drink in the aromatic anchors of palo santo, crystal and flower infused elixirs and allow yourself to be bathed in sound. Because our brains are natural pattern seekers, the bowls and chimes are played in intuitive sequences. These less predictable combinations take you out of the control tower of your mind and subdue you into a deep, restorative state of meditation.
