About this Event
Embrace the power of the Winter Solstice and set intentions for the upcoming spring during our peaceful and transformative sound bath event. As the holiday rush takes hold, take a moment to honor the solstice and reconnect with your inner light.
The Winter Solstice marks the shortest day and longest night of the year, symbolising the beginning of longer, brighter days. This celestial event signifies a transition towards spring and the gradual increase in daylight. Throughout history, the winter solstice has been celebrated by various cultures, each attaching unique meanings to this special time.
Immerse yourself in the resonating vibrations of gongs, chimes, and other sonic instruments, guiding you into a state of deep relaxation and meditation. For an even more profound experience, you have the option to indulge in a ceremonial dose of pure ceremonial grade cacao. This heart-opening plant spirit will amplify the healing benefits of the sound bath, enhancing your connection to the experience. However, if you choose not to drink cacao, rest assured that the sound bath alone will still provide incredible benefits.
Cacao has been revered for centuries for its physical and spiritual properties. It is known to boost mood, increase focus, and promote feelings of love and connection. Additionally, cacao is believed to open the heart chakra, fostering self-exploration and emotional release. By surrendering to the harmonious frequencies of the sound bath, the cacao will deepen your experience, offering profound insights and transformative moments.
Join us for an unforgettable evening of soulful exploration, where you can awaken your senses, expand your consciousness, and connect with the energies of the Winter Solstice. Reserve your spot now and experience the magic of the Winter Solstice Radiance: Sound Bath with Ceremonial Cacao.
