FAQs

• Sacred Agreements & Participant Care

  Age Requirements
  

  Events & 1:1 sessions in the temple space are open to people aged 21 and over, unless stated otherwise.

  We ask that you come with an open heart, listen deeply, and respect the stories shared.
  
  Please refrain from using phones, alcohol, or substances before and during the event.
  Your full presence is your greatest gift to the circle.

  Integration & Aftercare
  

  Integration is where the real medicine unfolds.
  After the circle, give yourself space to rest, hydrate, and journal any insights. Try not to rush anywhere or put yourself in a high stress environment post session.
  
  You may feel lighter, clearer, or tender — all are natural signs of energetic release.
  
  If you’d like additional support, we can recommend integration practitioners or one-on-one sessions with our facilitators.

  Mental Health & Emotional Support Clause

  These gatherings can sometimes surface buried emotions, memories, or grief. We encourage participants to seek professional support where needed, and to reach out to us for recommendations to integrative or trauma-informed practitioners.
  
  You are never alone in your process — please let us know if you need aftercare or integration guidance.

  Photography & Media

• What is Cacao, Breathwork or Sound Healing

  Cacao
  

  Cacao (Theobroma cacao) is a sacred plant medicine from Central and South America, traditionally used in ceremony to open the heart, uplift the spirit, and deepen connection.
  
  Unlike common chocolate, ceremonial cacao is a pure raw food, and retains its natural theobromine content — a gentle cardiovascular stimulant that increases blood flow and releases feel-good neurochemicals.

  Cacao is not psychoactive but can create a warm, euphoric, heart-centred state when consumed intentionally.

  If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking antidepressant medication, please let us know — we can serve you a half dose or herbal alternative.

  
  Breathwork
  

  Some events may include breathwork, sound healing, or light touch (massage/bodywork) as part of the journey.
  
  All touch is consensual, trauma-informed, and energetically respectful.

  Breathwork can evoke strong physical or emotional releases — please inform facilitators beforehand if you have any physical or mental health concerns such as PTSD, cardiovascular issues, pregnancy, epilepsy, or recent surgery.

  Sound Healing
  

  Sound healing uses sacred instruments such as didgeridoo, crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, chimes, and rattles to harmonize the energy body.
  
  These frequencies invite the mind into stillness, allowing the nervous system to recalibrate and the body to release tension.

  You may feel vibrations moving through your body, experience warmth, tingling, or emotional release.
  
  There’s no need to “do” anything — simply breathe, receive, and let the sound wash through you.
