Join Leanna (( Muyacura )) for a journey through Sound and Vibrational healing this March New Moon in Aries.
We will move through a heart-opening journey where you will be served medicinal cacao to assist in opening the heart as we move through meditation, guided breath, a sound journey and journalling.
You’ll be offered guidance on the process of manifestation and intention setting. This session is held within the scalar room, a resonant environment for the body to heal itself within.
We come together when the moon is at her darkest, and the stars their brightest to utilise this powerful new moon signalling rebirth.
A time for intention setting and calling in our manifestations as the Astrological calendar begins again, with Aries.
This new moon is described as a ‘cosmic reset button, inviting us to take fearless action’ with the pioneering energies that Aries possesses.
If your year has felt like a slow, misty start, an integration of the year gone by, the start of the astrological year tends to make more sense as a fresh beginning.
Make use of this powerful potential and cosmic alignment to connect deeper to you and nurture your heart, the portal of all manifestation.
What this session will involve:
Leanna will hold a safe and sacred space, and guide a group of 10 through a 2.5hr container weaving the following elements -
// Meditation
// Guided Breath
// Cacao: Drop into the heart with the heart blood, Mama Cacao. We will sip a small dose of ceremonially prepared & intentionally sourced cacao which is natural plant medicine known for its properties to open the heart, guide the intuitive focus and expand connection to source. It is stimulating and you will be given guidance to work with it using breath and meditation, note (having cacao is completely optional). Cacao beans are the basis of modern day chocolate.
Medicinal Cacao is generally thick, bitter and spiced with things such as cinnamon, cardamon, ginger. Leanna will prepare with with a touch of local honey, it is a mostly water based drink however some oat or coconut milk will be used if needed.
Note: Leanna does not claim to be trained in traditional use of cacao, she will lovingly prepare the medicinal drink and share it in circle with deepest respect to traditions of Ancient Mayans and Aztecs.
// Intention Setting, Manifestation guidance: this moon signals a reset and a portal of powerful listening, seed your intentions, reflect on how life is telling you to be now, what do you need to support this process? Leanna will give guidance on the process of manifestation.
// Sound Bath: A dreamy soundscape designed to cleanse your energetic field, amplify your intentions and lull you into relaxation will be woven with an array of sounds including: Voice, Medicine Song, Crystal bowls, Metal bowls and more…
// Journalling: After the sound bath there will be space to sit, reflect and write down what the heart and spirit want to share. In the reflective space post cacao, meditation, breath and sound healing, what is it that is coming to the surface?
// Scalar session: this journey is held within the scalar room meaning you’ll also receive a 2hr scalar session too

Contraindications for Cacao
SSRI’s antidepressants (Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors)
Please avoid consuming cacao if you are taking high doses of SSRIs. Cacao releases serotonin, so it works as a mild antidepressant. When taken with SSRIs that release serotonin chemically it can lead to serotonin syndrome.
Those on low doses of SSRIs and who drink coffee regularly, may choose to start on 10g cacao daily, and see how you get on. If you start getting a headache, or any other symptoms please stop and check with your doctor.
Individuals taking MAOIs (monoamine oxidase inhibitors) should avoid consuming ceremonial cacao due to potential interactions.
Pregnancy
It is recommended you reduce or cut out consumption of caffeine & stimulants during pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding. If you already consume these you may choose to consume cacao but at a lower dose of 10-15 grams. Many women chose to work with Cacao as a heart opener and a way to increase love & good feelings whilst pregnant or breastfeeding.
Adrenal Fatigue
Regular high doses of ceremonial cacao can also lead to adrenal fatigue
Pre-existing heart conditions or on heart medication
Cacao works on the heart & blood vessels so please speak with your doctor before consuming
High blood pressure or medication for blood pressure
Cacao works on the heart & blood vessels so please speak with your doctor before consuming
If you have a sensitivity to caffine
If you drink coffee, green tea or black tea, you should be able to drink cacao. Perhaps start with a smaller dose to begin with. Don’t consume on an empty stomach and leave a gap before going to sleep e.g. no caffeine after 12pm daily.
Certain psychiatric conditions
Cacao releases serotonin, endorphins and dopamine so generally creates feelings of wellbeing and euphoria. It has supported many people who feel anxious, stressed & depressed. However, it is advised you speak with your medical professional before consuming.
It's always advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating ceremonial cacao into your wellness practices, especially if you have any underlying health concerns or are taking medications.
