As the season shifts into deeper stillness, we gather to soften the edges. This is a space to slow down, reconnect to your inner world, and nourish your heart with the medicine of breath and cacao.
Cacao opens the emotional body with warmth and gentleness. Active breathwork clears the noise and creates space for truth to rise from within. Together, they offer a powerful reset for your nervous system and your spirit.
Krista will guide you through:
— A grounding arrival ritual
— Heart-opening ceremonial cacao
— A dynamic breathwork journey
— Gentle integration and rest
If you are craving presence, clarity, and connection before the holiday rush, this evening is for you.
Breathwork is an active meditation technique that facilitates emotional release in supportive environment. Through full rhythmic breathing, the conscious mind softens, allowing us to tune into our body wisdom to heal current stress, past wounds, and traumas.
All are welcome. No experience needed.
