About this Event

Join us as we explore tools for the art of living, helping you to escape the chaos and come home to yourself. Drawing upon ancient wisdom, we will take you on an immersive experience that will help you return to your centre - that inner place of calm, stability and self. 

The event will open with a cacao ceremony led by Tamsin Kaufman and followed by a breathwork journey guided by Lauren Smolenski. The day will conclude with tea in the crystal garden providing an opportunity to connect and ground in community. 


What is cacao?

Theobroma cacao, translates to “Food of the Gods” in Greek, where it was prophecized to have been brought to Earth from the heavens, to bring vitality and prosperity to the people. Cacao is an ancient healing plant medicine of the Amazon. It is revered as the blood of nature. A spiritual aid and superfood packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, used for over 5,000 years in ceremony; cacao is a gentle guide through transformational consciousness shifts and reminds us to move through life with an open heart, in tune with the frequency of Mother Earth.


Cacao Ceremony

We will activate sacred space with a cacao ceremony, inviting us to cultivate heart connection and openness to receive the ancestral medicines of ceremonial cacao & the breath.

Amaru Ceremonial Cacao from Seleno Health will be shared to activate our senses, open our hearts, ground us into the present moment, and enliven our cells with healing vibrations, intention, and elemental wisdom.

Referring to the ancient symbolism of the Medicine Wheel, we will cultivate the alchemically venerated elements of the Universe: earth, water, air, fire, and ether. As we drink cacao, we will go on a journey through the elements of the Medicine Wheel, balancing body, mind and spirit, whilst creating dynamic understanding of our mythic and energetic universe to support personal transformation. We complete the cacao journey at the centre of the medicine wheel, bathed in the healing frequency of crystal sound bowls.


What is Breathwork?

Breathwork is a powerful, active meditation technique for self-healing. Through the continued movement of the breath, stuck energy and emotional blocks are released. Breathwork is the fastest way to get out of your head and connect to your intuition. For many people it facilitates an emotional purging, leaving you feeling lighter and clearer.
