As a Trauma Certified practitioner, I help support people to have a better understanding of the nervous system and it's role and function - supporting those to create a better relationship between the brain and body. I've worked with clients that have suffered complex trauma, PTSD, Abuse (of all forms), and therefore its imperative for me to hold an safe unbias non-judgemental space for individuals to explore their inner world at their own pace.

This journey offers a transformative exploration of mind, body, and spirit as we delve into the harmonious blend of Cacao and Breathwork.

We will begin with some grounding exercises such as meditation and gentle breath to centre our energy before the journey ahead. I will then open the space with invocations and gratitude to the elements, directions, pachamama, and more before serving our cacao and setting our intentions. After slowly sipping on our cacao and connecting to her spirit, I will take you through a visualisation before leading you in to the sacred breath technique. We will finish by grounding, sharing circle (optional) and cards.

- A safe & gentle space to explore your inner landscape

- Connect with other like-minded individuals

What to Bring:
- A journal and pen for reflection and intention setting

Ceremonial Grade Cacao: Indulge in the rich, heart-opening properties of ceremonial-grade cacao. Known as the "food of the gods," cacao has been used for centuries to unlock the gates of the heart, promoting emotional release, heightened awareness, and a deep sense of connection. Allow the velvety elixir to guide you into a state of profound self-love and clarity.

Breathwork: Harness the transformative power of conscious breathwork, a dynamic practice that clears energetic blockages and revitalizes the body. Through intentional breath, release tension, and tap into a heightened state of awareness. Breathwork can facilitate emotional catharsis, improved mental clarity, and a profound connection to the present moment.

As we weave these ancient modalities together, the synergistic effects are profound. The heart-opening qualities of Cacao, and the purifying energy of Breathwork create a holistic journey of self-discovery.
