Cocoa Ceremony - Cacao (Theobroma cacao) is translated from the Greek as ‘food of Gods’. Cocoa has been known since ancient times for its various healing properties for the body and soul. While enjoying this food of the Gods, you will experience the heart-opening ritual of cacao and immerse yourself in meditative self-exploration. And when the inner noise calms down, there is a deep sense of merging with nature and ancestors. Magical rituals, deep meditation and the sounds of live sounds will take you on a sensitive inner journey.
-
Gong Therapy Together with the Gong Master Raimondas Binkauskas we will lie down and get immersed into the world of sound - relaxing vibrations, deeper than the waves of the eternally restless sea of the mind and emotions. A meditation experience with the sounds of gongs and bowls.

"I have just returned from Chloe Wards Awakening Your Light Retreat, in Thailand. I have experienced several retreats over the years and none of them have been like Chloes. The venues she chooses are nurturing on many levels including comfort, beauty and food. I have made new friendships; learnt huge amounts about my relationship to myself; gained insights and clarity in several areas and have arrived home with a sense of peace and renewed purpose. Chloe has a very unique gift as a holistic healer. Her knowledge, wisdom, compassion and humour make yoga and life seem so much easier. Thank you Chloe for your guidance."
