Divine Mother: Cacao, Medicinal Plants, Yin & Sound
Friday 6th March 2020
6.30pm-9.30pm
Soma Lab, Stoke Newington
I am honoured to be weaving the healing powers of sound, yin and medicinal plants together alongside magical souls Emma Barfield and Suzie of Ahimisa Plant Healing. Join us for a beautiful healing journey to release deeply held emotions, form a deeper connection to yourself and awaken your divine feminine energy. You will remember what it feels like to be truly held and nurtured and supported to become the ultimate mother to yourself. Through soft yet potent practices you will be nourished in mind, body, heart and spirit and leave feeling inspired to meet your own emotional needs with greater love and compassion.
We will gather in sacred space under the energies of the Super Full Moon in Virgo which truly brings the divine medicine to support our healing process. Virgo is the only sign represented as a woman and she is often associated with Mother Mary, the life giver. She is the nurturer, the mother and the healer. She is the intuitive, connecting us with the seen and the unseen, yet also rooting us deeply into Mother Earth. We will cultivate these powerful divine feminine energies into our journey to align with our intentions.
Suzie will grace us with the purest ceremonial cacao from the Ashaninka tribes in the Peruvian amazon, which will be brewed with powerful healing plants, Rose and Angelica. These magical plants have bountiful medicinal properties that support many shifts, including hormonal balance, emotional healing and blossoming self-love. Combined with cacao, which is a feminine plant spirit, they create a beautiful synergy of divine feminine healing.
Whilst the healing elixir is working through our system, Emma will guide us through a beautiful yin practice in candle light. Yin offers us the chance to slow down, tune in and ultimately wake up to the whisperings of the deeper and more quiet parts of our being. Collectively, times are shifting, into the dawning of a new era where we value connection, feeling, emotion and vulnerability. Let this practice of Yin be the doorway for you to explore these within yourself and wake up to all that you really are. It starts with you. Throughout the practice, Josie will make energetic adjustments and channel energy healing intuitively to each person.
After a dreamy yet opening yin practice, Josie will guide you into a sweet surrender as you receive crystalline vibrations, tuning forks and light language channeled through her voice. Light language is a way to channel spirit into the physical. It speaks to us on a soul level, igniting healing and activating those who are ready to awaken. Sound is a powerful healing gateway which speaks to every cell of our being and raises our consciousness, allowing us to open in a way that is effortless yet so profoundly deep. Josie believes sound tools become vessels for healing light to flow, deepening the shifts and helping those receiving to fully open. It is to be experienced to be truly understood.

EMMA BARFIELD
Emma is a yoga teacher and mentor dedicated to creating and holding spaces for humans on a mission to ignite the life force within them, offering them the chance to tap into their courage to live their lives in alignment with their truest expression, highest love and on full purpose.
Emma teaches Hatha, Yin, Yoga Nidra and Mindfulness, with a love for bringing awareness to energetic sensitivity and deep body listening, to really tap into the healing potential of this ancient practise.
‘For me, Yoga for me is a way for me to remember and realise my own unique essence. Each and every single time I roll out my mat, that first breathe feels like a home coming. Simply put, it has the power to make the ordinary extraordinary, and offers us the chance to connect to our own innate inner wisdom and connect with our own unique magic over and over again.
My own yoga journey extends over twelve years and I’ve been teaching for the last five through classes, workshops and retreats. I am forever grateful to every single beautiful teacher (and student) that I’ve met around the world, and continue to meet, that have held space for me and passed on their wisdom. This practise continues to enable me to believe in my own power, and through that I am I truly able to believe in yours.'
SUZIE, AHIMSA PLANT HEALING
Suzie is a plantbased creatrix and cacaoista trained under Rebekah Shaman and Cacao Mama in the art of creating sacred space and facilitating ceremonies. After drinking her first cup of ceremonial cacao, she knew she had to share this medicine with the world and rise to her mission for mama Earth. She has since founded the non-profit community company Ahimsa Plant Healing @ahimsaplanthealing with the shared intention of inspiring conscious, ethical, sustainable living. She co-creates ceremonies, workshops, and retreats, and runs an ethical zerowaste refill shop and event space soulhappyshop.com.
‘Indigenous myths tell of how whenever the balance between humans and nature becomes threatened, cacao comes from the rainforest to open people’s hearts and return the planet to a state of harmony.’
A true superfood, cacao nourishes our physical bodies, but also works a unique spiritual alchemy. Used ceremonially for thousands of years, this sacred seed is deeply rooted in ancient Meso-American culture and mythology. Drank in this way, Cacao can act as a powerful heart-opener, connecting us to our intuition, those around us, the natural world, and unseen guidance. Cacao can also help clear energetic blockages and awaken powerful creative energies within our wombs. Suzie and others working with the plant across the world heard a call from Cacao to help raise humanity’s consciousness and heal ourselves and the environment.
