Come open your heart at this intentional New Year's gathering with the medicines of cacao, dance and sound.You are invited to welcome in the new year with community and dream your life into being as another year ends and a new one begins.
The evening will open in circle to connect and set intentions.
You will receive a serving of the sweet medicine of cacao to guide your journey and soften and open the portal of the heart.
The evening will then shift to an ecstatic dance journey to center and regulate your being. Through the medicine of dance, we can shift at a cellular level and call in new ways of being. When we dance we touch the essence of the soul.
The experience will wind down with a sound bath to soothe the nervous system and cradle you in the vibration of love.
Our evening will wrap up with a closing circle.

To receive its full benefits eat light the day of the event and fast for 2 hours beforehand. Drink lots of water throughout the day and spend time outside connecting with nature if possible.
About Cacao:
I will be serving an organic cacao from Peru. Cacao beans are naturally high in minerals, especially manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, iron and zinc. In addition to minerals, cocoa also contains some caffeine and theobromine.
Contraindications:
If you are on anti-depressants or pregnant please message me so that we can discuss if cacao is safe for you. Cacao is contraindicated with some anti-depressants, especially MAOIs and some SSRIs.
