Sound & Cacao Ceremony
Join Shawn for a sacred Sound & Cacao Ceremony; an invitation to soften the mind, open the heart, and return to yourself.
We’ll begin with a heart-opening cacao ritual. As you sip this sacred plant medicine, you’re invited to slow down, set intention, and gently turn inward allowing the body to soften and the heart to expand.
From this grounded and open space, you’ll be guided into a deeply immersive sound healing meditation. Waves of vibration-gongs, crystal singing bowls, Himalayan singing bowls, drums, and more will ripple through every layer of your being. These frequencies work like a remembering, gently guiding you back to balance, alignment, harmony, and peace.
Themes of the approaching Full Moon in the earthy, grounded sign of Ta**us will be woven into the tapestry of the evening. Please wear comfortable clothing and bring a yoga mat, pillows, and blankets to create your own cozy space. Chairs are available if preferred (upon request - we have two Zero gravity chairs).
We recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early to settle in and honor the start of the ceremony. Doors lock promptly at 6 so if you’re running late, message Shawn at (847) 331-1408.
