In a world that often encourages us to keep going, it can be easy to forget the value of slowing down.About this Event
During our Beaver Full Moon Cacao Ceremony, we’ll move gently from openning and releasing into stillness and deep rest.
This session is for you if you:
✨ Feel ready to slow down and switch off
✨ Want to ease feelings of stress and anxiety
✨ Would like to support your nervous system and enjoy more restful sleep
✨ Want to create space for clarity, focus and creativity
✨ Feel called to turn inward and connect with the changing season
✨ Would love to spend a Sunday afternoon doing something kind and nurturing for yourself
What's involved:
- Cacao & Meditation — Sharing 25g of raw, organic, single-origin cacao to gently open the heart, help us connect with the senses and fully arrive.
- Gentle Movement & Somatic Shaking — Allowing the body to soften, release and shift energy.
- Calming Breathwork — Slowing the breath and softening into a state of ease, preparing the body and mind for deep rest.
- Sound Healing Journey — Drifting into a deeply restorative sound journey. Feeling the frequencies and vibrations of the Quartz Crystal bowls, gong, chimes and other healing instruments.
- Silence & Reflection — Closing with quiet inward reflection, allowing space for integration.
✨ Why Embracing Wintering matters?
Winter invites us to slow down, turn inward and make space for rest and reflection.
In a world that often encourages us to keep going, it can be easy to forget the value of slowing down. Yet rest is not time wasted, nor is stillness something to resist. By allowing ourselves moments of quiet, we can replenish our energy.
Winter reminds us that there is a time for growth and a time for rest, and both are essential parts of the cycle.
*This sound journey can be energising, emotional, or meditative, depending on what arises for you. There is no “right” way to feel — simply allow yourself to be present with the sounds.

💫 What is Cermonial Cacao: A deeply nourishing plant medicine. Traditionally referred to as the “Food of the Gods” or the “Sacred Seed”. Some of the wonderful benefits of this sacred plant include:
• Rich in antioxidants that help protect the body from oxidative stress
• A natural source of magnesium, which supports the nervous system and normal muscle function
• Contains theobromine, offering a gentle, uplifting energy
• Contains compounds associated with mood and feelings of wellbeing
• Supports healthy circulation and heart health
💫 What is Sound Healing: Sound healing, alternatively known as Sound Therapy or Vibrational Medicine, is the practice of using sound and frequency to bring harmony, healing and relaxation to the body, mind & soul. Vibrations from the instruments & sacred chant assist the release of energetic and emotional blockages in the body and stimulate healing.
"A person does not hear sound only through the ears; he hears sound through every pore of the body. It permeates the entire being, and according to its particular influence, either slows or quickens the rhythm of the blood circulation; it either awakens or soothes the nervous system.” – Hazrat Inayat Khan
💫 What is Conscious Breathwork: Practices which have the potential to clear physical, emotional and mental obstacles in our body, free the breath and so free the flow of our life force. When we consciously transform and change the pattern of the breath, it changes our nervous system and brain work. There are many breathwork techniques, and with practice, breathwork can change our endocrine system, blood chemistry, hormonal balance, reduce anxiety, boast energy and much more.
Connecting to the breath connects us to the present moment. "...The only moment there is." – Thich Nhat Hanh
✨ YOUR HOSTS
Aoife Moore & Kale Sael
We are Aoife and Kale, partners, co-facilitators and founders of Ancient Soul Healing.

Together, we bring a wealth of experience in yoga, meditation, breathwork, sound therapy, sacred voice, authentic movement, cacao ceremonies and women's circles. We thoughtfully weave these practices together to support nervous system regulation, deep relaxation and meaningful connection.

✨ Student Love:
- "This was an incredible experience. Relaxation to the tips of your toes. You would need to experience this first hand, as words would not do it justice. Very empowering, stillness, calm and makes you feel very grounded. You will not be sorry you experienced it. Thank you Aoife & Kale" (Denise K)
- "What a beautiful experience. I have gone to many cacao ceremonies before, but nothing like this. It truly was very special, I floated out. Aoife has a beautiful way of holding space. I particularly enjoyed the songs and movement that accompanied the cacao. I look forward to the next one! Thanks." (Enda).
- "I absolutely adore these evenings with Aoife and Kale. Aoife's lovely calm voice and Kales' sounds takes all the stresses away. Afterwards my body feels rejuvenated. I am so relaxed and refreshed. I have the best nights sleep after. I attend them with my husband who is now hooked! I would recommend these sessions to anyone male or female, needing to take a little timeout for themselves. I'm looking forward to the next one. Thank you!" (Eimear M)
