After the hike, we’ll gather together for some time at the Adamo Estate Winery right beside the park to eat, drink and socialize with good company. **Please note anything purchased at the winery is not included in the cost of your registration.** **Highlights** **Diverse Landscapes-** Embrace the wide array of different landscapes you will encounter throughout this adventure **Winery Experience-** Savour amazing wines from a great Ontario producer **Group Social Moment-** The perfect opportunity to connect and chat with fellow WU members **Event cost: $40+HST - optional transport available.** **Register [here. ](https://www.wildernessunion.com/adventures/hockley-valley-and-winery)** **About Wilderness Union** Wilderness Union is deliberate about building an outdoors community that connects you to the life-changing magic of the outdoors and helps you find your people.

🌿🛍️ DOWNSVIEW PARK WALK & MARKET HANGOUT 🛍️🌿 Open Space, Fresh Air & A Market to Explore Together Sometimes the best way to discover a place… is just to go and see what you find. This is a brand new walk — the first time we’re doing it — and that’s part of the fun. Join us for a relaxed social walk through Downsview Park, one of the largest urban parks in the city. Wide open spaces, walking paths, and a completely different feel from downtown — it’s the kind of place where you can actually breathe a little deeper. After our walk, we’ll head over to explore the Downsview Park Merchants Market, where we can wander, browse, and find something to eat together. This is not a formal tour. It’s a casual, exploratory outing — a mix of movement, curiosity, and good company. 👉 **Don’t forget to join our WhatsApp group** – [CLICK HERE!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc?mode=ac_t) *** 🚶‍♂️ What We’ll Do We’ll meet outside Downsview Park Station and head into the park for a relaxed walk, roughly about an hour at an easy pace. This isn’t a long-distance or intense walk — just enough to get moving, chat, and enjoy the space. Afterward, we’ll make our way to the market to explore together. There are usually a variety of vendors and food options, so we’ll take our time, see what’s there, and grab a bite if something catches our eye. You’re welcome to stay, eat, or head out whenever you like. *** 🌦️ Weather & Expectations This event will happen in typical spring weather — sun, wind, or light rain. As long as it’s not extreme conditions, we’ll be going ahead. Please dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes. Also — since this is our first time doing this route, we’ll be figuring it out together a bit. That’s part of the adventure. And as always — this is NOT a guided or historical tour. It’s about being social and enjoying the experience. *** 🧢 Meetup Details 📍 Meetup Location: I will be waiting outside of the Downsview Park Merchants Market & Farmers Market. The entrance is the one closest to Downsview Subway Station 🫎 I’ll be wearing my Moose Hat ⏰ Meetup Time: 11:00 AM I will only wait 5 minutes. Early is on time. On time is late. We’ll head out promptly, so please plan ahead. *** 🎟️ Meetup Fee: $5 cash in person or e-transfer to 📧 **mathewmaclean@hotmail.com** This helps support the group and allows us to keep hosting events like this. Thank you for supporting community! 💖 *** 🎒 What to Bring Water Comfortable walking shoes A small snack (optional) Weather-appropriate clothing (layers + wind-ready 🌬️) Optional: cash/card for market food Please also use the washroom before arriving, as stops are limited. *** 🌈 Who Is This For?

We also host: 🎬 Movies 🚶 Walks & hikes 🎭 Arts & culture outings 🍽️ Restaurant gatherings There’s always something happening. *** REMEMBER: You’re welcome to just show up on the day if you’re unsure about your schedule.

*This ceremony will be held at our beautiful studio* *'The Soul Sanctuary'in Leslieville, Toronto* ***Hosted by Chris Dub & Jennifer Mya.*** **Do you want to:** * Love yourself the way you are, and feel more confident to show people the real you? * Experience less anxiety, more joy, and move through triggers with more ease and grace? * Forgive your past self, and move forward feeling empowered by your choices? * Be held and guided as you look at negative thought patterns, so you can work through the outdated beliefs associated with them? * Free yourself from worry, and self-doubt, and receive practical tools to pull out the roots of depression? * Have a life changing spiritual experience, feel incredible gratitude for everything that has brought you to this point, and become the creator of your life moving forward? **Join us, dear Soul.** The time is now to rise up into your most empowered Self. To love, forgive, and have unconditional self compassion, unlearning the ways you've been taught to judge your emotions, thoughts, and desires. ***When you feel unconditionally loved and supported, you can more easefully bring forward the gifts you came here to share, and the purpose you came here to fulfill.*** The mind can distract you, and make you question your access to this unconditional love, but when you touch the source of it within you, it clarifies any confusion and you remember that it is your birthright. ***This ceremony is an opportunity to open your heart, and gain control of the mind.*** **Forgive yourself at the deepest level, and allow gratitude to guide you toward freedom.** When you forgive yourself and those around you, your power flows back into you. Gratitude is the open door to freedom and abundance, and ***when you recognize the gifts of the lessons life has given you - it becomes easier to let go of anger, resentment, and regret***. As you unravel what has been held and blocked within you, there is a natural alchemy that takes place within the body. Energy that's become stagnant is unfurled, allowing you to open to your natural confidence, peace, and vitality. ***We create and hold you in a loving space to heal and process through old traumas, ancestral karma, and to become more astutely aware of ego identification, leading to freedom, peace, and simplicity.*** **Release negative thought patterns, and rewire your nervous system for harmony and balance.** This ceremony is a safe space for you to look at the negative thoughts and limiting beliefs that hold you back from feeling your freest, clearest, most fully expressed self. Regulate your system through the awareness of breath, body (all levels - mental, emotional, physical & energetic), your 5 senses, and extrasensory perceptions. ***As you re-balance and re-align your system you will be able to see your internal experience more clearly, and also recognize why other people are the way they are, allowing you to have more compassion and forgiveness both for others and yourself.*** The more ***aware*** you are, the better ***regulated*** you are, and from that space you can become the master of your domain. You deserve the space and time to simply be, rest, rejuvenate, and feel the aliveness of living life moment by moment for YOU! **You are fully supported throughout the entire journey.** This ceremony includes the optional combination of pure MDMA along with the psilocybin mushrooms. We have found these medicines work very synergistically together, and offer an amplified level of heart opening. The pure MDMA is optional, and the dosing for both medicines will be based upon your intentions, disposition, prior experience, and current state at the time of the ceremony. After this ceremony you will feel more love for yourself and others, with a heightened sense of courage, strength, and integrity. ***You will want to make better choices, and also have the self-awareness needed to stay accountable to yourself.*** This level of love and clarity will emanate out to reach and impact all those closest to you. ***This is an invitation to open up your heart, and love and forgive yourself through unconditional acceptance. To awaken to your divinity and beauty, and access your greatest gifts of self-healing and conscious creatorship.*** **Ceremony Preparation & Integration** Prior to the ceremony you will receive an in-depth **plant medicine workbook** to help you prepare, questions to ask yourself and a recommended diet to support your experience. We will meet as a group before the ceremony for an **Intention Setting Call**, to connect with each other and share our intentions for the journey. You will also receive a **nervous system regulating practice** that supports in expanding internal awareness, grounding, centering and overall mindfulness. Following the Ceremony we will have an **Integration Call** to support and hold space for continued breakthroughs, challenges and dream weaving.
