[Laingholm] Cacao & Sound

On Friday 10th April, from 7PM to 9PM, at Laingholm Village Hall in Laingholm, we invite you into a heart-opening evening of connection and inner exploration.

We will begin by sharing Ceremonial Cacao, speaking our intentions with what is alive within our hearts, creating a space to connect with ourselves, each other, and the present moment.

At 7PM, you will be held in a space of connection. Everyone is invited to present themselves and share something to the collective. To ground, we will guide you through a breathwork, set intention for the journey ahead. We will then open a ceremonial space to invite the medicine of cacao with reverence.

At 7.30PM, after receiving Cacao, we will then go into the sound journey, being nurtured by the deep vibrations of medicinal instruments including Didgeridoo, HandPan, Jaw Harps, Shamanic Drone Flute, Shamanic Drum, Mongolian Throat Singing (Sygyt and Khoomei), celestial feminine chanting, and more — all amplified and layered through a loop station.

Within this experience, we invite you to journey inward to deeply relax and restore, reflect authentically without judgment, release and let go of what is no longer serving you, to cultivate clarity on where you are being guided.

The vibrations gently support the nervous system, helping to release tension, restore balance, and cultivate presence.
