This is a ritual-workshop which combines healing power of magic truffles (psilocybin) and transformative dance technique called Embody Peace (authentic practice developed by Branka Zgonjanin). Participants take a microdose of magic truffles in a ritualistic setting. It takes approx. 30 minutes for microdose to be felt. Effects are mainly noticeable in the body, a person might feel more relaxed and ready to work deeper. During this time we will do breathing and physical exercises for opening and preparation of the body. After this part follows an instructed dance practice, in which participants are stimulated to visit their “forgotten body parts”, places in the body where traumas, inner wounds, subconscious feelings, thoughts, etc. are stored. By activating those body-parts, in a more open way due to microdosing, and by integrating everything through Embody Peace dance, participants initiate for themselves a more holistic bodily awareness. Practice is simple, and anyone can do it.
This workshop will be supported with live percussion by EZRA BEAT (playing congas) and with meditative sounds created by live plants via special devices.
Fee: 35 EUR
