🌊 A Rendezvous with Your Heart | A Self-Love Breathwork & Cacao Journey

FAQs

• What should I bring?

  What to bring

  • A water bottle

  • Comfortable, loose clothing you can lie down in, with layers, as your body temperature can drop during the journey

  • A light blanket or socks if you like to be cosy

  • A journal and pen, if you’d like to write afterwards

  • Please bring your own mat and blanket if you have one. If not, I have mats available.

  Eye masks, headsets and ceremonial cacao are all provided.

• Before you arrive?

  Before you arrive

  • Please arrive by [9.45am] so you have time to settle in. [Doors close at 10.05am], as late arrivals can disturb the space for everyone.

  • Avoid a heavy meal for two hours beforehand.

  • Avoid alcohol and other substances the day before and on the day.

  • Skip coffee and other stimulants that morning, as the cacao offers a gentle lift of its own.

• I’ve never done breathwork before. Is this for me?

  Yes. No experience is needed. I’ll explain everything before we begin and guide you through each stage, and you can go at your own pace throughout.

• What is transformational breathwork?

  It’s a conscious, connected way of breathing, done lying down with music. It can help the body release tension and stored emotion, and many people find it leaves them feeling lighter, calmer and more connected to themselves.

• What might I feel during the journey?

  Everyone’s experience is different. You might notice tingling, warmth, waves of emotion or deep stillness. All of it is a normal part of the process, and I’ll be there to support you the whole time.

• What if I get emotional?

  That’s completely welcome. Tears and laughter are both natural responses to the breath, and I hold the space with trauma-informed care, so you’ll be supported in whatever comes up. Nobody is expected to share anything they don’t want to.

• Where do I park?

  Scarborough can get busy on a Sunday morning, so please allow extra time. There’s undercover paid parking at the hotel and a multi-storey car park on Manning Street. Street parking on the east side of West Coast Highway is often the easiest option, and it’s a short walk from there to the hotel.

• What is ceremonial cacao? Does it contain caffeine?

  Ceremonial cacao is pure, minimally processed cacao served as a warm drink. Mine is dairy free and made with coconut milk, maple syrup and essential oils. It contains a small amount of caffeine and theobromine, which give a gentle, grounded lift, so I’d suggest skipping your morning coffee. It isn’t recommended if you’re pregnant or take antidepressants or heart medication. If you have any allergies, please let me know when you book.

• Is there a reason I shouldn’t attend?

  Breathwork isn’t suitable for everyone. Please read the Important Information section before booking, and if anything there applies to you, message me first so we can talk it through.

• Can I come with a friend or partner?

  Absolutely. You’re welcome to come together or on your own.

• What is your refund policy?

  Tickets are non-refundable, but you’re welcome to transfer your ticket to a friend at any time before the session. Just let me know their name so I can welcome them on the day.

  If the session is cancelled by me or by Rendezvous for any reason, you’ll receive a full refund.
