Every one of us carries a unique energetic map — our Human Design — that shows how our body, heart, and energy are meant to move through the world. Some parts of that map are defined and steady, while others are open and deeply receptive — the places where we feel and absorb life most intensely.
In Human Design, about 70% of people have an undefined or open Heart Center, meaning we’re naturally empathic and attuned to others’ needs and emotions. This openness is a gift — it allows for deep love, compassion, and connection — but without awareness, it can also lead to burnout, over-giving, people-pleasing, and heartbreak.
In Designed by the Heart, we’ll use the wisdom of your Human Design to reconnect you to your heart’s natural intelligence. We begin with a ceremonial cacao circle to open the heart, followed by gentle movement to awaken compassion and joy, breathwork to clear energy that isn’t yours, and a loving-kindness meditation to refill your heart with truth and trust.
Throughout the journey, you’ll explore how your open centers — especially the heart — affect how you love, give, and receive. You’ll learn how to recognize when you’re carrying someone else’s emotions or expectations, and most importantly, you’ll implement boundaries rooted in self-love and energetic integrity so that your open-hearted nature becomes your greatest strength, not your greatest leak.
You’ll leave with:
💗 A deeper understanding of your Human Design and open centers
💗 Clarity on how to identify and clear what isn’t yours
💗 Tools for creating energetic boundaries that protect and empower you
💗 A feeling of lightness, peace, and confidence in your natural energy
No prior experience with Human Design, cacao, or breathwork is needed — all are welcome.
