Søndag d. 16. november kl. 14-17.30 med Paolo da Floresta
Deep Breath Cacao Ceremony is a combination of breathwork and heart opening with ceremonial cacao.
Paolo will be visiting Nordisk Yoga for the second time.
We benefit from the heart opening qualities of this divine elixir and consciously move energy through our bodies using guided breathwork.
There will be cacao, breathwork, drumming and a special tea meditation and these ceremonies are an opportunity for you to let go of control and surrender in a safe calm space, explore your breath, your body, get in closer contact with yourself and feelings or take silence within yourself and ask for clarity with some area of your life.
We come together as one tribe during the ceremony in a space of love and respect and whatever comes to the surface during the ceremony, the journey is inward yet will have ripple effects within the group and our lives in the coming days.
We open up to work with the subtle energy body where we can free up blockages in our flow of prana, emotional body where we can release suppressed emotions, mental body where thoughts fuse into matter and we create our reality and physical body where ailments can potentially be resolved.
This inner work will be gently guided by the medicine of ceremonial cacao in a sacred manner to open us up and take us out of the thinking mind, journeying with sound to deepen into our centers with a non aggressive breathing technique, coming home…….
ABOUT THE HISTORY OF CACAO
Cacao was used in many spiritual rituals as a facilitator in vision quest to connect with our inner wisdom.
There is an unseen magic to this divine elixir recognised by these cultures that deemed it a sacred beverage to be consumed ceremonially. The Cacao elixir can act as a spiritual guide during the breathwork journey.
ABOUT THE CACAO
We work with very high quality ceremonial cacao from South America.
Ceremonial cacao is made from whole organic Cacao beans. These beans pass through a fermentation process necessary for cultivating their optimum flavor and activating certain natural compounds. The beans are then roasted at low temperatures or even sundried, the husks are then hand peeled and stone ground by traditional means into a dense block of paste which retains all the original fats and nutrients in their natural balance unlike cacao powder.
Ceremonial cacao elixir is not a super food it is a super natural food, rich in magnesium, chromium, copper, calcium, manganese, zinc, sulfur, iron, and phosphorous, abundant in antioxiants and encourages the release of endorphins like dopamine throughout the body which ease symptoms of PMS and depression by boosting our mood and contains two nuerotransmitters PEA (phenylethylamine) nicknamed the love molecule and Anandamide the bliss chemical named after the sanskrit word Ananda which simply means bliss and joy.
ABOUT THE BREATHWORK
Deep Breath is a flowing non aggressive way to work with the breath and the body. Moving pranic energy through the body the process can often energize, relax, release emotional blockages and memories of past important life events can also surface on such a deep journey.
The breath is in two parts, masculine and feminine, active and passive, inhale and exhale, merging into a oneness. This process can be truly a wonderful experience harmonizing the polarity of yin yang energies into balance.
The journey will be safely and lovingly facilitated and guided by Paolo da Floresta.
PAOLO
My origins of the Mediterranean and star-signs of the water element, I have found myself drawn to water all my life and through my experiences with Free-diving I learned how the breath can effect our emotional and mental bodies and also put us in deep states of relaxation.
In 2012 was intuitively called to learn Rebirthing breathwork where I studied under the guidance of the late Leonard Orr, founder of Rebirthing in the west. It was a profound experience and afterwards I felt the call to travel and share the breathwork. Shortly after I connected with cacao and blue lotus earth medicines and found they can help with the journeying and these ceremonies were born. I have been working with breathwork for more than 10 years now since 2012.
