**LIMITED SPACE **


The breath is everything - it happens both consciously and unconsciously. When we bring our awareness to it and breathe with intention - big things can happen. Somatic breathwork invigorates the body, mind and spirit as we bring this up-regulating breath of life through our bodies, exploring all parts of us. When we breathe in this way, our nervous system becomes awakened which results in the ability to access stagnant energy, old stories and emotions that have been stored deep down in the body. This can present physically such as temperature changes, shaking, yawning and even cramping (which can also be caused by the fluctuation of our blood chemistry). We can also experience an array of emotional experiences from anger, sadness and grief to joy and bliss. Sounds are encouraged and space is made specifically for that as it helps to tone the Vagus nerve and to move energy.

All of the sounds and emotions are welcome - all parts of YOU are welcome.


Cacao is the plant medicine offering for this ritual. I have been serving this beautiful heart-opening elixir because of its wondrous effect combined with my teaching of the Universal Law of Shen-Qi-Jing - whereby the heart is the gateway/portal in which we receive the highest truth and infinite wisdom from our Soul (a fractal of the infinite Universe). Thus, having the heart open allows us to be able to access this higher information.


Additionally, there are other "add-on" items to bring some of the magic home with you: cacao, palo santo, and mugwort - have a look before you finalize your purchase.

(Please message me with any questions)


ITEMS TO BRING:

- Yoga mat / "nesting" comfort (1 mat and pillow will be provided)

- Water bottle (Mug will be provided for cacao)

- Light blanket

- Meditation cushion (optional)

- Eye covering (recommended)

- Journal & writing instrument (important integration tool)

- Open mind and heart

- Your beautiful self.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION about the event will be included in the TICKET CONFIRMATION EMAIL.

Meet your Guide:

Matty Ryce is a spiritual mentor, ceremonialist, energy worker, and DJ devoted to helping people awaken to the Truth of the Heart.

With decades of experience in music and facilitation, he intuitively weaves sound and wisdom into transformative journeys that align and heal the mind, body & soul.

Through workshops, ceremonies, and ecstatic dance, Matty supports participants in connecting to the Self, one another, Spirit and the Earth - cultivating greater awareness, presence, balance, and embodied living.


Holding Space is such a crucial part of this work.

Be it in ceremony, an event, or coaching container — holding space is about creating AND maintaining an environment conducive for participants greatest and highest good.

As a Facilitator, it requires doing the inner work – before AND in real-time, in order to uphold the integrity of the container.

Integrity includes honouring higher Truth, while understanding and respecting the role, power (dynamics), and influence one has as facilitator-leader.

Integrity results in safety,

safety leads to surrender,

surrender allows for receptivity

(this is where the magic happens).

It is an honour and a privilege to be entrusted to serve in this way,

and this is the work that I am devoted to.

MATTY
