Kundalini Yoga, Medicine Songs, Cacao and Amazonian Plant Medicine Hapé and Sanaga

Join Jenny and Lydia for this intimate medicine ceremony on Saturday 22nd February at Stockbridge venue, LifeCare Edinburgh

Lydia begins by serving Amazonian medicines while offering traditional medicine prayers to connect inward, release and let go. Jenny will then lead us through a powerful yet grounding practice of kundalini yoga which includes breathwork & mantra, followed by a deep relaxation with sound to help the practice and the medicines integrate. We spend time at the end connecting and sharing with ceremonial cacao, and healthy nutritious, homemade snacks

About these medicines:

Sananga is a potent medicine from the Amazon, traditionally administered as eye drops. Though the sensation can be intense, its effects are short-lived. Sananga enhances focus, reduce migraines and headaches, opens your third eye and provides an energetic cleansing.

Hapé is a sacred tobacco-based snuff used by Indigenous Amazonian tribes, such as the Yawanawá. Traditionally, it is used for spiritual and physical healing, balancing energies, and bringing clarity. It’s also a grounding tool.
Although not a psychedelic, it should be avoided by those who are pregnant, have heart conditions, or suffer from serious mental health issues.

Lydia is an integrative psychologist and student of Yawanawá culture and spirituality, Lydia has lived in the Amazon jungle, immersing herself in the teachings of the Yawanawá people. She has also helped establish the Emâ Vena retreat centre and continues to support Indigenous communities through ceremonial work and fundraising.

Jenny is a kundalini yoga teacher and postpartum doula, who has a passion for bringing healing modalities to her community through these collaborations.

Exchange including all medicines is £90 (£79 early bird discount until 31st January )
