Join Aisling for an afternoon of yoga, heart opening, healing and spring renewal with the beautiful plant medicine of cacao.
Plant medicine has been used for thousands of years. For many native tribes plant medicine is very much a way of life for healing and supporting the body, mind and spirit.
Cacao has been worshipped and used by many ancient and indigenous tribes in south America for thousands of years. This incredible plant aids the opening and expansion of the heart chakra and has an abundance of health benefits. As well as being jam packed with antioxidants, spiritually it holds you in a safe space to allow the heart chakra to expand and shift stagnant energy which is ready to gently be released.
Aisling is a trained shamanic plant medicine healer and will assist you to meet the spirit of cacao as we enjoy this beautiful ceremonial drink, through sound, breath, yoga and a shamanic journey. You will have time to set intentions, draw oracle cards and bask in cacaos medicinal energies whilst being in a supportive healing environment. It will be a truly magical and if you wish transformational afternoon.
Moving out of the darkness of winter into the light of spring we will enjoy a gentle yoga practice encompassing both yin and yang to clear stagnant energy which may have been accumulated during the winter, to make space for the new vibrant energy of spring to arrive.
Drinking ceremonial cacao, we will focus on opening the heart to more self-love, but will also explore where we may not be asserting our boundaries and help us move into a space of more discernment.
Meeting in the energy of the full moon lunar eclipse, just days away from the spring equinox, we will tap into this potent energy to set intentions as we arrive into the season of rebirth.
* Please note: cacao contains theobromine (similar to caffeine) which widens the body’s airways. It may not be wise to drink cacao if you suffer from heart problems or are pregnant (however a smaller dose can be arranged) and just being in the energy is more than enough.
