Chakras and Shadows – Ecstatic Dance, Live Drumming + Breathwork
May 7 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm CDT
TICKETS: https://square.link/u/oOw8If1K
As spring explodes around us, the urge to shake off the cobwebs is natural – not just in our lives but in our psyches. In this shadow workshop, we’ll call on our inner healer and all the senses to explore the shadows associated with each chakra.
We’ll begin the journey with a cacao ceremony, a tradition revered in shamanic practices for its heart-opening and spirit-aligning properties. As we sip, we’ll do journaling work together around the shadows associated with each chakra. Then we’ll warm-up our physical vessels and practice meditation through movement during a short ecstatic dance session. Our dance will merge with a standing breathwork practice before we lay down on our mats for the transformative journey ahead.
You’ll be guided through your journey using shamanic drumming, breathwork and visualization to help you achieve altered states of consciousness and deeper levels of self-awareness. After visiting each of our shadow realms, we’ll bring healing and cleansing energy to each chakra before we close with a short gratitude practice.
Whether you are new to breathwork or a seasoned journeyer, this event offers a safe and supportive space to connect with yourself and the natural rhythms of the universe. No previous experience is necessary—just an open heart and a willingness to explore your self.
