Openair Ceremony of Transformation & Letting go - Cacao, Dragon Yin, Kali Mantra Journey

Ceremony of Transformation & Letting go - Cacao, Dragon Yin, Kali Mantra Journey

June 11th / 10:15-13:30 / Yoga Scheune Meilen

We're gathering this summer again at the beautiful open-air yoga shala in the woods of Meilen. A serene environment to dive deep into around 3,5 hours of connecting to yourself with the sounds of birds, a summer breeze, and a gently flowing river.

If you deny pain, you also deny joy. As much as you can feel your pain, you will also feel your joy.

This Ceremony is there to let die what has to die and create space, stamina, clarity, and intention to move with integrity and in alignment with your heart for what’s here to be born!

Giving thanks for all the lessons

Releasing whatever seems we’re still carrying around but can’t really change anymore

and embracing what we can

Because staying with old shit - no matter if we label it as enjoyment or suffering - will let our soul die slowly

Staying where we don’t belong as we try to create artificial superficial belonging, won’t satisfy the heart’s yearnings

So let’s get honest

let’s get wild

and let’s move into the heart and from there into the world

with both feet on the earth

so we can do what we came to do on Planet Earth!

It’s time to ride the dragons again my dear yinsters! If you’re new - don’t worry, everyone is welcome that is ready to go on a deeply transformative journey as we’ll be doing the Traditional Yin Yoga Dragon Flow, deeply opening the hips and encountering our inner dragons that manifest also in the outside as limiting beliefs, non-serving habits, difficulties to release what doesn’t serve you, toxic relationships, chaotic mind, and unclear intentions.

We’ll be chanting (repeating a phrase / no signing)  to the Goddess Kali - the Goddess of Death, drink a powerful Cacao that will support us in creating some inner fire, re-discovering our passions, and just live, feel and enjoy life more. You can also simply absorb the energy without chanting, if you don't feel comfortable. 

What is included in this Ceremony:

• Cacao Ceremony and 1-2 cups of Cacao to connect to your heart and body
• Kali Mantra Meditation for Deep Transformation
• A  transformative Yin Dragon Journey that focuses on bringing the bullshit up, releasing it and moving beyond it
• A safe space to be yourself no matter what gender, age, background, profession, physics, race, religion
• An amazing group of humans to connect with
• An opportunity to reset, recharge, relax and set new intentions and gather inspiration on how to make every day beautiful
• Tea & Journaling after the Ceremony to slowly come back (in total around 3,5 hours)

PREPARATION & POST CEREMONY CARE

-There isn't anything specific you have to prepare. It's recommended to hydrate well prior and after the ceremony as ceremonial cacao activates the liver and is great for your connective tissue. It helps flush out whatever needs to be released physically, mentally and emotionally.

-Keep your food intake on the day of the Ceremony and evening before light(er) and vegetarian. Anything that you digest easily and feels light in your system. Bring a snack for after the Ceremony.

-You may have a specific intention or want to tune into what would help you completely to immerse yourself into the Ceremony. If you can, don't make appointments on the day of the ceremony, maybe even a day after. It's good to take some time to nourish, be in nature, not have to rush, solve, move too much but have space to do whatever feels good in that moment! :)

-You can journal or meditate upon the following questions if this helps you:

1. How am I feeling physically right now?

2. How am I feeling mentally right now?

3. How am I feeling emotionally right now?

4. How am I feeling energetically right now?

5. What would be something I'd like to solve/release from my life/body/mind/emotions?

6. What would be something I'd like to feel/experience more in my life?

7. How would I describe the relationship to myself in 3-5 words?

8. What can I do to feel more nourished in my day to day life?

9. What is something that I can do for myself to feel connected to myself?

10. What people in my life lift me up, help me grow and allow me to fully be myself? Which people are crossing my boundaries and constantly complaining?

-Notice in your day to day life what activities, people, habits, routines, rituals, places feel expanding and nourishing and which feel contracting and stressful
