πŸ““πŸ–ŠοΈ There will be space to pause, journal, and reflect at Harvest Within so we can gather the wisdom from the previous season. ⏸️ Often times we do not take the time to slow down and find the clarity to bring forward.
This space gives us the opportunity to simply listen, without any expectations or pressure.

Introducing MOON MEDICINE JOURNEYSπŸŒ™

πŸŒ• Move with the moon πŸŒ‘ - ✨ return to your rhythm ✨

Moon Medicine Journeys is my monthly lunar offering to help us move & flow with the moon, rather than feeling pulled by her.

🌊 Instead of feeling tossed around by big emotions, energy shifts, and astrological waves, these journeys are a space to work alongside the moon to support your body, your emotions, and your intuition πŸ™Œ

Inside this series:

πŸŒ‘ NEW MOON | Breathwork & Reiki Journeys
A more gentle, inward journey. We do gentle movement, breathe, and clear what no longer serves. With guided breathwork and hands-on Reiki to support deep restoration and a return to self.

πŸŒ• FULL MOON | Breathwork & Sound Journeys
An expansive, releasing journey. We breathe, feel, and let go under the full moon, held by the healing vibrations of sound to come back into balance and flow.

You are welcome to join for one phase or both - each journey is complete on its own, and together they create a beautiful rhythm to return to each month.

πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ This is my invitation for us to reclaim our natural rhythms, together.

Next one is September 10th - New Moon in Virgo πŸŒ‘

I would love to have you for these Moon Medicine Journeys! πŸ’—

Our first Breath + Reiki back after the break! Want to come experience the magic with us?

πŸ“£ Be guided through a transformational breathwork journey with the support of gentle reiki energy healing from Jillian Marchand of .Embodiment & two additional reiki masters - Kristi Lyne Shayan & Jillian McGrath from ! πŸ’† This journey will help you to disconnect from the thinking mind to move stagnant energy through intentional breath while being energetically grounded into your body through reiki.

🀲This session will guide simple movements to get your body moving & fluids flowing. 🌬️ After a quick movement practice we will lay down for the breathwork journey. During the journey all 3 reiki practitioners will provide hover & hands on reiki healing to the group.

πŸŒ‘ This session lands on the New Moon in Virgo and will be themed to support you through to work with this lunar event! ♍

✨Limited to 10 spots✨

Yoga mat & blanket are provided as well as optional eye mask. Bring along your water bottle & journal/pen (optional). Doors open 15 minutes early so you can get settled.

πŸ“† Date: Thursday, Sept 10th at 6-8pm
πŸ“ Location: Antigonish
πŸ’² Investment: $55+HST/person

Booking link in comments on FB - send a message if you cannot use the QR code 😊

This style breathwork is not the best style for everyone. Breathwork can surface trauma and energy in the body which may cause discomfort. This is the most gentle class with transformational (longer duration) breathwork. If you are new to going into your body or breathwork it is recommended to practice slowly & take breaks as your body desires. If you have any questions, send me a message πŸ™‚

🌬️ At Harvest Within, you will be nourished by a gentle breathwork journey. Not to fix or push. Just to arrive. To soften from the busyness of harvest season outside and turn inward to what is ready to be gathered within. This is a gentle journey to come home to your body 😌

✨ Something magical is coming to the FireLoch Retreat and Gathering Place Dome ✨ Imagine this... You arrive to the most beautiful, open, light-filled Dome - it's warm, expansive, and held in nature. You can feel the sky above you. The air is soft. The world outside gets quiet. 🌳☁️

You’re handed a warm cup of ceremonial cacao 🀎 - an ancient, gentle heart-opening plant medicine to bring you back into your body.

Then you lie back and let go as the healing frequencies of Quartz Crystal Singing Bowls & Koshi Chimes wash over you. An immersive sound bath that harmonizes your energy, calms your nervous system, and brings you back into balance.

πŸ’†β€β™€οΈ This is an invitation to rest deeply. To open your heart. To be bathed in sound inside a space that feels like pure magic! πŸ™Œ

JOURNEY WITH CACAO & SOUND
Inside the beautiful Fireloch Dome

Join me for an evening of:
β˜• Ceremonial Cacao to open the heart & connect to the body
🎢 Immersive Sound Bath with Crystal Bowls & Koshi Chimes
🌲 Held inside the stunning Fireloch Dome submerged in nature

Cacao is non-psychoactive, gentle, and the perfect pairing to a Sound Journey if you’ve been craving softness, stillness, and a little magic!

If your body is saying yes, trust that πŸ’—

Jillian
