Prepare to embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and healing as we invite you to join us for a unique and immersive experience in the heart of nature for an Outdoor Sunset Sound Bath and Plant Medicine Journey with Sananga with Jessica Rosario & Elisabeth White.
Event Overview:
Nestled within the serene embrace of nature at Riverview Park, this event is a fusion of ancient healing practices, soul-soothing sounds, and the powerful healing properties of Sananga. Welcomed with nourishing fruit and tea, this experience is designed to help you reconnect with your inner self, find balance, and tap into the profound wisdom that resides within you. As you settle into a comfortable spot our practitioners will inform you of what to expect before receiving your consent to begin the journey. You may choose to partake in the Plant Medicines or just bask in the harmonies of nature and sound.
Sound Bath: Guided by Jessica, a mesmerizing experience where the healing frequencies of crystal bowls, chimes, and sacred drums wash over you like gentle waves. As you lie comfortably on your mat, the harmonious sounds create a sonic cocoon, enveloping you in a blanket of tranquility. The vibrations penetrate deep into your being, releasing tension and inviting profound relaxation. This auditory journey can transport you to a meditative state, where the mind becomes still, and the spirit awakens.
Plant Medicine: Sananga: Next, Elisabeth will introduce you to the remarkable world of Sananga, a potent plant medicine derived from the roots and bark of a sacred Amazonian shrub. Sananga has been used for centuries by indigenous tribes for its healing and visionary properties. When applied as eye drops, Sananga clears the energetic pathways and enhances your inner vision, allowing for a deeper connection to your emotions, thoughts, and the world around you. As you experience the effects of the Sananga, Elisabeth will continue to guide you using essential oil third eye massage as you fully submerge into the sound bath.
Plant Medicine: Hapé - The Amazonian tradition of Hapé (pronounced ha-PAY), is a sacred medicinal tobacco snuff in which our plant medicine guide Elisabeth will gently administer through the nose. Hapé is revered for its profound grounding and clearing properties, creating a bridge between you and the spirit of the plants.
Outdoor Setting:
Settled along the Observatory Hillside of Riverview Park is an outdoor sanctuary, surrounded by the soothing sounds of nature. You'll be nestled under the canopy of the Great Tree, breathing in the fresh air while the natural surroundings enhance the healing journey, providing a sense of oneness with the Earth and a deep connection to the elements.
