Cacao Ceremony and Sound Bath
Join us on the 1:11 Portal Day for a sacred evening of deep healing and energetic activation designed to open the heart, expand consciousness, and align body, mind, and spirit.
We begin with a Heart and Crown Chakra Activation Ceremony led by Channel & Shamanic Practitioner, Sherie, opening pathways of love, clarity, and divine connection. This intentional opening prepares the energy field to receive and integrate higher frequencies of healing throughout the evening.
Following the activation, participants will be gently guided into Quantum Breath Work, a rhythmic and intentional breathing practices that supports emotional release, deep relaxation, and spiritual alignment. During the breathwork journey, you’ll be immersed in a Healing Sound Bath and Shamanic Drumming Experience, co-facilitated by Feathered Sage Facilitators Michael, Sherie, and Jenn Hansen-Silva, M.S.
This multidimensional soundscape blends sacred drum rhythms with an array of sound bath instruments; including crystal singing bowls, chimes, rain sticks, and other vibrational tools to heighten the senses, balance the energy centers, and deepen your meditative state.
The evening will also include sacred singing, inviting participants to join their voices together in a unified group vibrational experience that amplifies heart coherence and strengthens the energetic connection among all present.
Participants will also receive ceremonial-grade cacao, served with intention to open the heart and deepen connection with self and spirit. As the cacao medicine flows through the body, the rhythm of the drum, the resonance of sound, and the harmony of voices create a powerful container for transformation, release, and renewal.
This unified experience of chakra activation, breathwork, sound healing, sacred singing, and shamanic drumming invites profound emotional healing, spiritual expansion, and alignment with your true essence.
