Step into an experience like no other, where cacao and breathwork come together to create something truly special: a chance to pause, breathe deeply, and open your heart in ways you might not have before. Together, we will explore what lies beneath the surface, guided by the gentle power of cacao and the rhythm of your breath. This journey is about connection—both to yourself and to the energy around you. Come as you are, and leave feeling renewed.
Why Cacao?
Cacao cultivates a deeper sense of presence and connection, offering a meaningful journey for your mind, body, and spirit. On a physical level, it delivers essential minerals like magnesium, which can help your muscles relax. On a deeper level, cacao lifts your mood by releasing feel-good chemicals, increases your focus, and enhances your meditation practice, deepening your connection with yourself and bringing a sense of calm and unity. Combining cacao with breathwork can further amplify these benefits, as cacao’s mood-enhancing properties deepen your emotional release during breathwork.
Why Breathwork?
A group breathwork session allows deep and transformative release. After acknowledging our purpose and intention for the session, we will move through a fully guided rhythmic series of breaths and breath holds, allowing us to enter into a state where we can step aside from out past, our present, our fears and our future, allowing stored stress to be released from the body.
By allowing our minds to rest we can let the body express the emotions we have been hiding. Fear, pain, anxiety, anger, rage, happiness, joy, love are all things we tend to not allow ourselves to express so we end up storing them in our bodies creating potential problems. By breathing the way we do in these group sessions we allow these emotions to surface and leave the body.
