🌸🌆 **FLEURS DE VILLES: FLORA – BLOOR-YORKVILLE FLOWER WALK** 🌆🌸 A Floral Trail, City Streets & A Peak Bloom Experience For a few days each year, Bloor-Yorkville transforms into something completely different — a curated, walkable floral experience right in the heart of the city. Join us for Fleurs de Villes: FLORA, a one-of-a-kind event where local florists, designers, and businesses come together to “flower-bomb” the neighbourhood with stunning installations. And here’s the bonus — we’re going earlier in the week, right during peak viewing time. That means fresher displays, fewer crowds, and the best chance to experience everything at its fullest. Expect to see over 30 creative floral displays popping up in unexpected places — from fashion-inspired mannequins to floral archways, window installations, and even edible creations along the way. This is not a formal tour. It’s a social walk — come explore, wander, and take it all in together. 📲 **Join Our WhatsApp Group:**[ Click here to join](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DRFTkxRlHS4B3IL1lMleUd) *** 🚶‍♂️ **What We’ll Do** We’ll meet at the Toronto Reference Library and begin our walk through the Bloor-Yorkville area, following the floral trail and discovering installations as we go. There’s no rush — we’ll take our time, stop for photos, and enjoy the creativity of each display. After the walk, we’ll head over to Jack Astor's for food, drinks, and a chance to hang out and connect. 🍔🍹 You’re welcome to join for food or head out whenever you like. *** 🌆 **Vibe & Expectations** This is an easy, relaxed city walk — no distance pressure, no intensity. Just: ✔️ Beautiful visuals ✔️ A lively neighbourhood ✔️ Good company Also — this is NOT a guided or historical tour.

An opportunity to serve the homeless and those at risk as a group. During our recent sessions, we served meals, chopped veggies, made sandwiches, and helped prepare pasta. Each session is similar; however, tasks may vary depending on the need at hand (e.g., sorting food). *We had a great time serving together with lots of smiles and good energy.* **Only 6 spots are available. If you sign up, please do so with the intention of attending, as the organization relies on our numbers for planning.** We will send a reconfirmation message closer to the date, and if any spots become available, we will reach out to those on the waiting list. When you arrive at Reception, the staff will guide you to the volunteer room, where you can place your belongings in a locker and meet the group. **Before attending, please review and complete the Toronto Joy waiver form:** [https://forms.gle/1fsK9vYz6b6yDdeBA](https://forms.gle/1fsK9vYz6b6yDdeBA) **Below are simple guidelines from the Ministry on what to wear, safety, etc.:** [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1piAyloECv9YUDkPJuoJBdCmh3x8n1un1rGvJSFIkbs4/edit?usp=sharing](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1piAyloECv9YUDkPJuoJBdCmh3x8n1un1rGvJSFIkbs4/edit?usp=sharing) **Good to know:** * **Closed-toe shoes are required.** * Tie back long hair; minimal jewelry. * **Please arrive by *1:40 PM* at the latest** so we can plan who will be doing which roles and begin together. * If you can’t make it due to an emergency, please message me as soon as possible 🙏 Grateful to serve alongside you.

**This journey changed my life in ways I never expected.** When I first started receiving this transmission in 2022, I didn’t fully understand what was happening. I didn’t have the language for it, I just felt something inside of me beginning to open, like a quiet awakening I couldn’t explain. It wasn’t something I needed to figure out or control. If anything, it invited me to soften, to let go, and to trust what my body already knew. Over time, as the energy continued to move through me, things began to shift in a very natural way. Slowly and gently, emotions I had been holding onto started to rise and release. My body softened, and for the first time in a long time, my nervous system felt like it could truly exhale. I began to feel safer within myself, more grounded, more present in my everyday life. My intuition became clearer, and life felt quieter, not in a way that felt empty, but in a way that felt steady and peaceful. I experienced a kind of inner calm that didn’t come from everything being perfect, but from feeling more connected to myself. That’s what this work supports. It doesn’t give you something new. It brings you back to what’s already within you, beneath the layers of stress, conditioning, and old patterns. It’s a remembering of who you are, and that remembering continues to deepen into trust, presence, and a more grounded sense of being. This is why I feel called to share this work in our community. To create a space where you can slow down, breathe, and step out of the constant doing and thinking. A space where your body can begin to unwind and release what it’s been holding, without force and without pressure. In this session, you’re invited to gently let go of what you’ve been carrying, reconnect with your body’s natural intelligence, and come back to yourself in a deeper way. You’re invited to remember something simple but powerful, that you are already whole, that you are deeply supported, and that you don’t need to become anything else. There is nothing to fix and nothing to achieve here. You don’t have to try or perform in any way. Your only role is to receive and allow your body to guide the experience. If something inside of you feels drawn to this, even if you can’t fully explain it, trust that. Your body knows what it’s ready for, and your system will only open to what feels safe and aligned for you. I look forward to holding this space with you. With love, Tracey 🤍 **Kundalini Activation Process® (KAP) at Kardia Athletica** **Saturday, May 9th • 2PM – 4 PM • Toronto** **Why Come?** Life can feel like too much thinking and not enough feeling. Maybe you’ve noticed: * Tension that never really goes away * Mental chatter that crowds out clarity * Low energy or creative blocks * A sense of disconnection from purpose KAP is here to help you reset. **What to Expect** **[Kundalini Activation Process® (KAP)](https://www.kapacademy.com/)** is a **direct energy transmission** that awakens your own **kundalini life force**—the natural current of creation within you. As this current flows, it gently clears stress and reorganizes your system inside a **non-dual field of consciousness**—a space of pure presence where deep healing can unfold. Most participants report: * A calm, balanced nervous system * Mental quiet and emotional clarity * Renewed inspiration and creativity * A grounded sense of inner freedom There’s **nothing to learn or perform**. You simply lie down, receive, and let the intelligence of the energy move where it’s needed. **Event Details** 📍 **Kardia Athletica, Toronto** 🗓 **Saturday, May 9th** 🕜 **2:00 PM – 4:00 PM** **Come if you’re ready to release tension, open creative flow, and reconnect with your true nature—held by the living current of kundalini life force and the infinite stillness of the non-dual field.** **[Kundalini Activation Process® (KAP)](https://www.kapacademy.com/)** is a powerful and life-changing experience that helps you unlock your true potential. Imagine going on a deep adventure within yourself, finding hidden treasures of your personality and abilities that you didn't know existed. With KAP, you learn to light up the energy inside you and connect with the life force present in all living things. This process guides you to break free from old habits and beliefs that have been holding you back, allowing you to live in new and fulfilling ways. KAP is the ***path of surrender***, it's about letting go rather than trying harder, different from practices like kundalini yoga, tantra, or chi gong. Energy moves from the top of your head down to your base, clearing blockages and healing old wounds on its way. In this session, you'll receive a "***double transmission***" - a powerful mix of Kundalini energy and non-dual consciousness. This fusion will enliven your life force energy, revitalizing your body, mind, and energy flow. Simultaneously, your awareness will expand into the realm of non-duality, enriching your perception of the unity of all beings. **HOW IS THE SESSION?** I invite you to find a cozy spot to lie down on a yoga mat, where you can fully sink into this experience. Once you're settled, I'll start playing some specially chosen music that helps your brain relax more deeply. During our time together, I'll focus on your energy centers, also known as chakras, and specific meridian points on your body. My goal is to use gentle touch and light pressure to help clear any energy blocks and support your overall well-being. Rest assured, the pressure will always be soft and comfortable to ensure you feel safe and at ease throughout our session. **WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT DURING A SESSION?** Walking into a KAP session, you leave the outside world behind. What happens next is nothing short of amazing. **Energetic Vibes**: While you're lying down, you might start feeling a powerful energy moving through you. It's like an electric wave that fills you up, making every part of you come alive. **Visual Adventures**: Your inner sight, or "third eye," wakes up, and suddenly, you're seeing vivid images, colors, and maybe even going on visual journeys to places beyond your wildest dreams. **A Rollercoaster of Emotions**: It's normal to feel a whole spectrum of emotions during the session. You might feel anger, sadness, fear, happiness, or even burst into laughter. The magic happens when you allow yourself to fully experience these emotions without holding back. **Unexpected Movements**: You might find your body moving in ways you didn't plan, like stretching, shaking, or even striking a yoga pose. Listen to what your body wants to do without overthinking it. You may feel tension build up and then release, leaving you in a state of deep relaxation. **Blissful Moments**: There's a chance you'll reach a bliss state, where you're completely in the moment, feeling a deep sense of joy and satisfaction. It's tough to put this feeling into words, but it's unforgettable once you've felt it. **DISCOVER THE BENEFITS OF KAP** * **Freedom from Emotional Baggage**: Wave goodbye to those heavy emotions that drag you down. * **Broadened Consciousness**: Find yourself thinking and understanding beyond your usual limits. * **Intuition Amplified**: Your gut feelings get louder and clearer. * **Stress and Anxiety Reduction**: Watch your worries and tensions melt away. * **Boosted Confidence**: Feel more sure of yourself and your value. * **Wiser Decisions**: Navigate life with a sharper compass. * **Pure Bliss**: Experience moments of unadulterated joy. * **Stronger Boundaries**: Learn to say no with confidence. * **Shedding Limitations**: Free yourself from thoughts and patterns that hold you back. * **Breaking Old Habits**: Step out of cycles that no longer serve you. * **Increased Resilience**: Find strength to change what doesn't work in your life. * **Deeper Compassion**: Understand and connect with others on a new level. * **Clear Mind**: Enjoy the tranquility of a calm and focused brain. * **Creative and Spiritual Growth**: Explore new ideas and feel more connected to the world. * **Purpose and Direction**: Find your path and walk it with confidence. * **Healthier Relationships**: Connect with others in more meaningful ways. * **Unity and Gratitude**: Feel part of something bigger and appreciate the small things. * **Enhanced Intuitive Skills**: Tap into your inner psychic. * **Empowerment**: Take control of your life and happiness. **An Invitation to Remember** This space is not about performance or perfection. It is not about doing more, achieving more, or becoming someone new. It is about remembering. Feeling. Coming home. To your body. To your soul. To the divine intelligence already within you. Whether this is your first session or part of your deeper path, I welcome you with all my heart.
