The Wild Within – Spiritual Exploration & Connection

The time of the Full Moon is an energy peak, like the crest of a cosmic energy wave that's been building throughout the lunar month. It is a time of recharging and letting go of what is no longer serving us, ready to start fresh and clear with a powerful vision and intention for our lives. 🌕 🌕

September's Full Moon coincides with a Lunar Eclipse - amplifying the effects of culmination, transformation, and emotional release! 🪷💙

At the peak of the moon's energy, we will work with the medicines of Cacao and Blue Lotus, Relational Alchemy, and Transformatioanl Breathwork to realign and rebalance ourselves at the time of this full moon in Pisces. ☕️🌬️

Transformational Breathwork and Cacao are two powerful medicines which help us to drop into our heart and body, expand our consciousness, and journey into emotional, physical, and spiritual healing. Combined with relational alchemy and the intuitive properties of Blue Lotus, we experience a powerful connection to ourselves, meeting what wants to be seen and felt as we set forth our intentions and shed what needs to go for the coming cycle.

We will open the space with a cacao ceremony, bringing in Cacao and Blue Lotus as our plant guides this month. 🪷 ☕️ Working with cacao helps us to open our hearts, access our intuitive channels, activate our creativity and gently turn inwards into a space of self love and reflection. Blue Lotus is an excellent ally as we open to the full moon in Pisces, supporting dreamwork, opening our third eye/vision, and helping us to expand our awareness.

We will set our intentions for this space and for this moon cycle ahead, and then after a personal journey with cacao, we will move into some relational practices to move the energy through our heartspace. We will then warm up the body and breath to enter into our transformational breathwork journey.

Transformational Breathwork helps us to deepen our inner connection, improve our physical vitality, elevate mental and emotional clarity, and awaken our spiritual connection. It works by helping you to bypass the conscious mind and move into the subtle body to access the deeper layers of emotion, while gently supporting the nervous system.

It’s a powerful and effective way to move stuck energy, access emotional and energetic catharsis, and tap into a deeply intuitive state while remaining grounded in the body!

During our breathwork journey, you will lay down on your mat and be gently guided into a rhythmic breathing pattern supported by the music and my voice helping you to travel deeply into your body, allowing the breath to create space for release and renewal.

For many, the breath utilized in this way can help to release stored emotional energy that has been keeping them blocked and stagnated for years. And for many others, it is a portal to their innate wisdom and medicine within, an activation of their true essence and gifts.

Our journey will conclude with a group integration, with time for journaling and sharing insights and further support for one another.

Together we will co-create a healing and insightful experience of somatic release, heart-centered expression, and creating space for what you are truly calling into your life at this time.

Note: If you tend towards elevated blood pressure or have any heart issues, please contact me before the session so we can determine if this particular form of breathwork will be appropriate for you.

Limited spaces available (up to 18); please only RSVP if you definitely plan to come! (or update accordingly.)

What to Bring: Please bring a mug for cacao, a water bottle, a journal and pen, and comfortable clothing (layers are good for temperature fluctuations that can happen during breathwork!) We will have blankets and yoga mats available at the space.
