Voice Activation + Cacao Ceremony Workshop

Voice Activation + Cacao Ceremony

Our own voices are the most healing musical instruments we have. Singing is such a healthy way to release all kinds of emotions, singing together in groups creates a feeling of community, connection and wellbeing. A joyful, therapeutic and uplifting experience!

Costanza invites you to an empowering journey where you will discover the true power of your voice through dynamic voice activation practices and supported by sacred cacao and live music.

In this transformative workshop, we’ll explore the depths of self-expression and cultivate a profound connection between your inner self and your voice.

To deepen the experience, we will open with a heart-opening cacao ceremony. This ritual allows you to open to yourself and those around you, creating an environment of unity and receptivity. Build confidence, awaken your vocal strength and embrace your uniqueness in community.

What to expect

No singing experience needed. We will do some warm ups at the beginning and then you are encouraged to join with an open heart and open mind.

How to prepare

Wear loose fitting clothes and bring a water bottle.

To reap all the benefits from this experience, come with an empty stomach or avoid eating at least an hour before the start of the workshop.

Again: prior experience with singing or making music is not necessary!

As part of this session, you are invited to drink a cup of hand crafted ceremonial cacao prepared with 5 aromatic spices and plantbased milk. The dose of cacao we serve is a safe dose for almost everyone, but as always, there are a few exceptions.

Please avoid consuming cacao if:

- you are taking high doses of SSRIs. Cacao releases serotonin, so it works as a mild antidepressant. When taken with SSRIs that release serotonin chemically it can potentially lead to serotonin syndrome. If you are taking low doses of SSRIs, we suggest having a lower dose of cacao (<10 grams).

- you are taking MAOIs (monoamine oxidase inhibitors) should avoid consuming ceremonial cacao due to potential interactions.

- if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. It is generally recommended you reduce or cut out consumption of caffeine & stimulants during pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding.
