SUMMARY:Rest & Relaxation Afternoon
DESCRIPTION:In the chaos of our daily lives\, we’re constantly being pulled in a million different directions and stretched so thin that our stress levels are too high and we end up in a persistent state of fight or flight. We crave some rest and relaxation\, so that we can feel restored and rejuvenated and this is what this retreat is all about! We will combine various modalities to help you calm the mind and the body and teach you some that you can do at home to help you reduce stress and relax.\n\n  \nCacao Ceremony\nThe Cacao Ceremony provides a space for us to come together\, share our experiences\, and connect with each other.\nCacao is a perfect plant for anxiety\, as it brings natural stress relief. By directly connecting to our nervous system\, it triggers dopamine and the endorphin\, ‘Anandamide’\, two essential neurotransmitters that make us feel blissed out and loved up.\n  \nYoga Nidra\nYoga Nidra is a guided meditation rooted in ancient yogic traditions that follows a systematic relaxation process. Researchers who have studied it have found that the brain goes into a unique state where it is asleep\, while we’re actually awake and conscious. Apart from being deeply relaxing\, being in this state also unlocks several mental\, physical\, and emotional benefits.\n  \nSound Bath\nA sound bath is typically a way of managing anxiety\, soothing the nervous system\, and blocking all the ideas and thoughts out of your consciousness as you connect with your body. Sound enters the healing equation from several directions: It may alter cellular functions through energetic effects; it may entrain biological systems to function more homeostatically; it may be calm the mind and therefore the body; or it may have emotional effects\, which influence neurotransmitters and neuropeptides\, which in turn help to regulate the immune system—the healer within.\n\n  \nReserve your place here:
