Shaking Journey hosted by Sarah Wolfe

Shaking is a natural tool that supports the processing of emotions and energy through movement + sound. This class incorporates slow smooth calming trance-like meditative movements of Qi Gong, guided + free movement + vocal activation to release + relax the mind body. Shaking is also known by other names and is inspired by methods such as Therapeutic Neurogenic Tremor, TRE Trauma Release + OSHO Kundalini Meditation. Expect in this journey to set your mind free, to laugh and alleviate pains and aches in your body.

Shaking is an instinctive intelligence within all mammals which stems from our Autonomic Nervous System. Through this experience you will encourage deep levels of relaxation, unravel physical tensions and more. Trust your body’s deeper intuition + encourage self healing.

Cacao Ceremony In a sacred circle we will all have a cup of the original and 100% pure ceremonial cacao and allow it to awaken our heart and soul. Cacao is an amazing plant medicine – a powerful aphrodisiac, mood enhancer, and an antioxidant that protects the heart. It is densely packed with nutrients and proven to be the most pharmacologically complex food in nature. It can improve your memory, reduce heart disease, shed fat, boost immunity, increase blood flow and nutrition to the brain, heart and skin – the whole body is nourished. Cacao contains the neurotransmitters and chemicals responsible for wellbeing, as well as anandamide, known as the bliss molecule that leaves us feeling euphoric, moderating pain perception, as well as assisting in regulating appetite and mood. When high quality cacao beans are prepared for ceremony as they will be in this offering, all the mood enhancing nero-chemicals in cacao become particularly active. Sacred cacao ceremony participants often report heightened awareness, focus and intensified sensations. Cacao is not only healing for the body, but also for the soul and spirit as it is heart opening and an amazing meditation aid. Radha works with Shaman Keith Wilson’s cacao, carefully and ethically sourced premium beans that are made into paste around the magical lake Atitlan. Cacao Shaman Keith was the pioneer of the revival of Cacao as a sacred ceremonial drink in Guatemala. The tradition of drinking ceremonial cacao originates in the ancient culture of the Mayas in Central America. It was believed to carry the spirit of fertility and abundance. The goddess of chocolate, Ixcacao, was also known as the ‘queen of love and pleasure’, connected with the energy of the heart. Later cacao was served in ceremonial context in nowadays Mexico, in the Azteca and Olmec cultures.
