Sound Bath with Optional Cacao

What is a Sound Bath?

A Sound Bath is a meditative experience where a group of people lie down and listen to resonate sounds, using gongs, singing bowls and other percussion. Sounds have been used as a form of healing dating back to ancient cultures. Records of using gongs are know from as early as ancient Egyptian, Greek and Roman times. It’s a way of releasing anxiety, soothes the nervous system, and blocks the ideas and thoughts from your conscious as you connect to your body. It shuts off your body’s fight or flight reflex. It allows the brain to relax into alpha -dominant or theta-dominant brainwave states.

What is Cacao?

Cacao beans or seeds come from the fruit of the Cacao tree. They are full of nutrients. Cacao is stimulating like coffee but with no caffeine. Is is also NOT a psychedelic and does NOT give you the jitters. Its chocolate in its purest form. A cacao ceremony is where cacao is drank to elevate the spiritual ritual being practised. Its about opening the heart and dropping into that space with an open mind.
