"I came into Alex's Cacao Ceremony feeling dulled by life, not realising how closed-up my heart was feeling until it warmed and opened under the influence of the cacao! In the safe and welcoming space of the cacao ceremony I could feel myself uncurling, going from tightly wound to relaxed and able to breathe freely again. Then the sounds of the gongs and other instruments could get to my heart to rearrange things, so that the next day I am happier and more in love with being alive. Thank you to Alex, the cacao and the gongs!"

Bring something to sit or lie on, a pillow, blanket, thick socks, water, eye pillow and anything else that will enhance your warmth and comfort. Enjoy a sweet spicy tea and treat afterwards as you gently come back down to earth.
Not to put you off but please be aware…
Gong baths are not suitable for anyone whose had major surgery in the last 6 weeks, anyone who suffers from fits (epileptics), or is extremely sensitive to sound. They are also not recommended for women in the first trimester of pregnancy due to the unstable nature of pregnancy during that time. If you wear a hearing aid, your device should be turned off during the session.
Whilst cacao is generally safe to drink and not a typical allergen, there are some contraindications to be aware of:
1. Cacao contains caffeine, (same amount as green tea and less than coffee) so bear this in mind if you are sensitive to caffeine.
2. Cacao also contains an amino acid called tryptophan. This is the precursor to serotonin, (the neurotransmitter in charge of your mood and a commonly prescribed anti-depressant). If mixed with cacao and depending on dosage, it can create some unpleasant side effects (headaches). For this reason, please let me know if you need a smaller, homeopathic dose of cacao so you can enjoy the benefits without overdoing it.
However, this doesn’t mean you can't drink a small amount of cacao and therefore have the energy of the plant medicine in you.
Drinking a small amount of cacao in pregnancy has not been shown to have any harmful effects.
If you’re uncertain whether or not cacao or a sound bath is right for you, best to check with your doctor first.
Sound healing is one of the oldest and most ancient forms of healing and dates back thousands of years. The sacred sounds of the gongs produce frequencies that can help resolve emotional, physical or spiritual dissonance; helping us restore balance and harmony. During a ‘Gong bath’ the gongs generate waves of sound that intersperse with and bathe our entire body – both physical and non-physical, re-aligning our cells and pressing the re-set button as it were!
These powerful gongs are invaluable tools for stress reduction & personal transformation.
"Alexandra is a highly experienced, sensitive and intuitive practitioner. We had never experienced a gong bath before and this was an amazing day. We came away feeling completely relaxed and “ in tune”. It is extremely healing and beautiful and we would recommend it to anyone, for any reason. intentions as you connect more deeply with yourself and with others."
