Cacao Ceremony
We will gather to share a cup of ceremonial grade cacao (drinking chocolate). Cacao is known for gently opening the heart chakra. Cacao ceremonies are an opportunity to set and share intentions, meditate, connect with others in the community, and nourish your body and soul. It is suggested you avoid or reduce caffeine intake prior to the ceremony. Please bring your own mug.

Restore Roots: Herbs & Holistic Approaches to Balancing the Earth Element: A Virtual Workshop
Discover herbs and practical tips that can help you feel grounded and nourished all season long.

When this element is out of balance, you feel scattered, anxious and experience difficulty moving out of survival mode. Join Genessa for this live 2 hour virtual event taught via Zoom. During this workshop you will reconnect to your root chakra through guided meditation, journaling and breath work, and meet several herbs that can support you in restoring balance on a physical level.
No experience necessary. Pre-registration required. Replay will be available.
