Sacred Cacao Sound Ceremony @ Downdog + Crow, Woodstock

Cacao Sound Ceremony @ Downdog + Crow Oxfordshire

I’m so excited to be offering my first ever Cacao Sound Ceremony at the beautiful space of Downdog + Crow in Oxfordshire in Feb.
Cacao is a beautiful, gentle, heart healing medicine that can help bring clarity where we are feeling unclear, focus where we are feeling scattered and clearing where we are stagnated and stuck. This medicine helps us access realms that are often unavailable to us when we are too caught up in the head and enables connection with the subconscious realms where deep seated healing can take place. With Cacao we drop down from the head into the heart where we can navigate with feeling instead of thought. Cacao helps disperse any blockages around the heart and coupled with the vibrations from the Gong we experience healing at a cellular level to rebalance the physical, emotional and spiritual bodies.

This intimate ceremony will give us the space and time to tune into the stillness within to connect to our deepest intuition, release any blockages that may be present, bring clarity to any areas that need our attention and help us enjoy a deep sense of peace and well-being.

We will begin by silently setting our intentions for the ceremony - being clear about your intention will help cacao to work her magic with you. We will mindfully drink the Cacao experiencing it’s warmth and presence in the body and you will then lie down to be bathed in relaxing, therapeutic vibrations from the gong as these medicines do their healing work. There is nothing for you to do as you take an inner voyage with the gong as your guide.

Comforting tea and healthy biscuits will be provided after the ceremony as we enjoy some time to share and write down any insights or wisdom that you've gained, whilst basking in the cacao glow : ))

Please contact Downdog + Crow for bookings HERE

Shamanic Bootcamp with Rebekah Shaman

Join us for this intense, personal development workout and get ready to flex your wings and fly into spring detoxed from any mental, emotional and spiritual BS.
With increasing darkness on the planet make sure your light is switched to ON and set to service.
Held in a beautiful retreat centre on the edge of the Oxfordshire/Warwickshire border this specially formulated weekend will take you through your shadow and back into the heart so you have the tools and inner guidance to help deal with life more gracefully and effortlessly. 

Morning yoga will help to awaken the body, stir the energy and dust out those energetic cobwebs. The cacao ceremony is a gentle yet transformational plant medicine journey which gives us the stillness to listen to messages, give us time to focus on issues we may have been avoiding and set new intentions going forward. The powerful gongs and sound healing assist us on a cellular level to heal and instil change.

True transformation comes from deep inner work which is not without it's sweat and tears but like anything hard you come out energised and refreshed with a new sense of clarity.

This Shamanic Bootcamp will help sweep out any doubt, darkness and debris that may have accumulated over the winter months so you can emerge into spring shining and ready for anything. 

Rebekah Shaman inspires conscious change by educating on the importance of Plant ‘Consciousness’ for our future survival, and assists those in the urban jungles to live more shamanically, reconnecting them back to Nature, and the natural cycles and rhythms of life.
Rebekah provides you with the tools you need to recognise the magic of nature supporting you, and the wisdom of your own inner power, so that you can manifest and create real change on this planet, not only for you, but for future generations. This is about really living, breathing and participating in this world, as a conscious co creator.
Rebekah has studied and worked with three ‘feminine’ plant medicines over the last 20 years; Ayahuasca (a vine from the Peruvian Amazon), Cannabis and Cacao. She has a BA (Hons) in Study of Religions, and MSc in Development Economics, both from SOAS University, and a Post-graduate Psychology Diploma in the Human Givens Approach. She is also the author of the self-published book ‘The Shaman’s Last Apprentice’.

Journey To The Heart Cacao Gong Ceremony

Cacao Gong Ceremony London

This is a ceremony to connect us back in with our loving selves through our heart centre, to take us out of the realm of the mind and connect us back to the heart.

The ancients of the south and central Americas would drink cacao to commune with their gods and similarly we can drink Cacao to commune with our’selves'. When we ingest this sacred plant medicine we enable a deeper connection to our our intuition and our inner guidance system as Cacao takes us from a place of ‘thinking’ (the mind) to a place of ‘feeling’ (the heart), aligning us with our true essential nature, love.

Sound and Cacao work together to deepen your connection to your intuition and to the subconscious realms. Cacao releases energetic blocks in the body and coupled with the healing frequencies from the Gong Bath we experience a release of blockages around the heart, enabling energy to flow freely in the body.

We begin by silently setting our intentions for the session. When we state our intention a strong message is sent out to our subconscious mind which will help us in achieving our goal. Then we will mindfully drink the Cacao experiencing it’s warmth and presence in the body, before chanting together to begin to gently open the heart chakra. You will then lie down to bathe in relaxing, therapeutic vibrations from the gong as the cacao does her healing work and you take an inner voyage with the gong as your guide.

Comforting tea and biscuits will be provided after the ceremony as we enjoy some time to share and write down any insights or wisdom, whilst basking in the cacao glow.

Please bring a blanket and anything else that will deepen your cosy comfort : )

•   Cacao contains theobromine which stimulates the system much in the same way as caffeine can. If you have a sensitivity to caffeine then please consult with me and we will discuss if you can still participate and have a low dosage.

•   Cacao can react with anti depressants causing headaches so please let me know if you are on any medication before booking.

•   Please inform me if you are pregnant so I can give you a lower dose of cacao.

    Sacred Cacao Gong Ceremony

    You may know Cacao as the base ingredient for our beloved confectionary chocolate but did you also know in that in larger doses Cacao is a powerful heart opening, plant medicine that has been used in Shamanic ceremony for eons? 

    The ancients of the south and central Americas would drink cacao to commune with their gods and similarly we can drink Cacao to commune with our’selves'. When we ingest this sacred bean we enable a deeper connection to our our intuition and our inner guidance system. Cacao releases energetic blocks in the body and coupled with the healing frequencies from the Gong Bath we experience a full energetic clear out.

    Sound and Cacao work hand in hand to deepen your awareness, intuition and connection to the subconscious realms. Cacao amplifies the effect from the sounds and vice versa, these medicines really work beautifully together and for this reason we only need to ingest half a ceremonial dose to feel the full benefits.

    What will happen in the ceremony?

    We will begin by silently setting our intentions for the session. When we state our intention a strong message is sent out to our subconscious mind which will help us in achieving our goal. Then we will mindfully drink the Cacao experiencing it’s warmth and presence in the body.

    You will then lie down to be bathed in relaxing, therapeutic vibrations from the gong and other instruments as the cacao does her healing work and you take an inner voyage with the gong as your guide.

    Comforting tea and healthy biscuits will be provided after the ceremony as we enjoy some social time where you can write down any insights or wisdom that you've gained, whilst basking in the cacao glow : ))

    I have been working with the beautiful Cacao medicine for over 3 years now as a tool for transformation in my life and I can’t wait to share this wonderful teacher with you.

    There are very limited number of spaces available to this event as I would like to keep it small and intimate. Advanced booking is essential.

    For your comfort please bring a blanket and water to hydrate after the session. Feel free to bring a journal to jot down any insights or anything that may come up for you.
