As powerful as it is gentle, it is renowned for opening the heart.You’ll be supported by this loving plant medicine, Matthew’s sacred music, and a small, cozy gathering of kindred souls.Cacao is the raw, purest form of chocolate…but drinking it ceremonially is worlds away from the experience of eating a chocolate bar!When you take the time to meet cacao with gratitude, intention, and reciprocity, it teaches you to reconnect with your heart, tend your relationships, and live on purpose guided by the vision of your soul.As human beings, gathering in ceremony is our birthright.It is who we are, and how we evolved.This is a celebration that we can continue to gather, with purpose.Our ancient ancestors and medicine people used sound and music to help us heal our bodies, communicate with nature, and open to the spiritual realms.Matthew Kocel’s music springs from these ancient origins to return awareness of the interconnection of all life back to humanity in the modern age.Space is limited to 17 participants.This will fill up, so register now!“Words seem so deficient for explaining the depth of experience... I was being moved by sound, my whole body was light and vibrating.” - Vancouver Yoga ReviewFor the last 3 decades, Matthew Kocel’s life work has been centered around creating sacred space and healing with his voice, music, and teachings.A respected leader in the global sound healing movement, he has released 3 albums and traveled extensively to share his sonic medicine.A few years ago Dr Joe Dispenza heard and felt this healing vibration, and began utilizing Matthew’s music in his guided meditations and retreats around the world.“Matthew Kocel’s music is so primal, so rich and brilliantly soulful... It touches us on a profoundly deep level and opens our hearts..." - Dr Joe Dispenzahttps://youtu.be/gbqoL1nWHQo?si=IVafsNQQjTAkiaD5 - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/surrey/new-years-day-cacao-and-sound-healing-ceremony-w-matthew-kocel/100001978039030989 - **Event Categories**: new-year, health-wellness, parties, entertainment, meditation - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 79.67, max: 79.67, currency: CAD ## Event venue details - **city**: Surrey - **state**: BC - **country**: Canada - **location**: Private Home in South Surrey, BC (address given with registration0 - **lat**: 49.03541329999999 - **long**: -122.73803 - **full address**: Private Home in South Surrey, BC (address given with registration0, Address given with registration, Surrey, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: New Years Day Cacao & Sound Healing Ceremony w/Matthew Kocel - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/c2a1d77de68deb11b6dc83e97b3f22a211a5b082946e83ae2b577085915de951-rimg-w1200-h675-dc151516-gmir.jpg?v=1765876640 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is New Years Day Cacao & Sound Healing Ceremony w/Matthew Kocel being held? - **A:** New Years Day Cacao & Sound Healing Ceremony w/Matthew Kocel takes place on Thu, 01 Jan, 2026 at 12:00 pm to Thu, 01 Jan, 2026 at 02:00 pm at Private Home in South Surrey, BC (address given with registration0, Address given with registration, Surrey, Canada. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for New Years Day Cacao & Sound Healing Ceremony w/Matthew Kocel? - **A:** Tickets for New Years Day Cacao & Sound Healing Ceremony w/Matthew Kocel are priced at CAD 80 per person.
