About this Event
The beginning of this decade brought the whole world to an abrupt about face.
We stood staring at the brink of chaos, yet we came through.
But what are we holding now?
What do we leave behind, and what do we extend forward?
Let's gather in a sacred way, connect to our hearts, and call in our highest guidance and support as we start a new cycle.
This New Years Eve ceremony is an opportunity to start your year with an open heart and clear intentions.
Cacao is a sacred food and plant medicine. As powerful as it is gentle, it is renowned for opening the heart.
You’ll be supported by this loving plant medicine, Matthew’s sacred music, and a small, cozy gathering of kindred souls.
Cacao is the raw, purest form of chocolate…but drinking it ceremonially is worlds away from the experience of eating a chocolate bar!
When you take the time to meet cacao with gratitude, intention, and reciprocity, it teaches you to reconnect with your heart, tend your relationships, and live on purpose guided by the vision of your soul.
As human beings, gathering in ceremony is our birthright.
It is who we are, and how we evolved.
This is a celebration that we can continue to gather, with purpose.
Our ancient ancestors and medicine people used sound and music to help us heal our bodies, communicate with nature, and open to the spiritual realms.
Matthew Kocel’s music springs from these ancient origins to return awareness of the interconnection of all life back to humanity in the modern age.
Space is limited to 15 participants.
This will fill up, so register now!

“Words seem so deficient for explaining the depth of experience... I was being moved by sound, my whole body was light and vibrating.”
- Vancouver Yoga Review
For the last 3 decades, Matthew Kocel’s life work has been centered around creating sacred space and healing with his voice, music, and teachings.
A respected leader in the global sound healing movement, he has released 3 albums and traveled extensively to share his sonic medicine.
A few years ago Dr Joe Dispenza heard and felt this healing vibration, and began utilizing Matthew’s music in his guided meditations and retreats around the world.
“Matthew Kocel’s music is so primal, so rich and brilliantly soulful... It touches us on a profoundly deep level and opens our hearts..." - Dr Joe Dispenza
