Your Mesa is your TEAM LIGHT!
CALL 7 - OUR APUS AND THE PORTAL OF THE WEST
The Mountains of our planet - our Apus as we call them - are the gate keepers, the guardians and the protectors not only of Mother Earth - they are the protectors and guardians of us! The Mountains take care of business on Pachamama. They control the elements, protect the Earth and they love us like God Fathers. All they ask is that we remember to speak with them, open our hearts to them and ask for what it is we need, so they can help. Each week, we build on the power of our prayers - that when we ask the mountains to move, they move!
CALL 8 - THE ELEMENTS
We explore in depth each of the powerful elemental forces and guardians of Pachamama - Fire, Water, Earth and Air. We explore them from the perspective of the Andean Cosmovision, and how they relate to us internally as well as externally, and how they help us to understand and feel the nature of each direction in the Medicine wheel of life.
CALL 9 - SOMATIC MOVEMENT & THE ELEMENTS WITH JELENA DEVI
Jelena Devi joins us to share about Somatic Movement and bringing ecstatic dance into our Cacao ceremonies and journeys. She will guide us through a delicious Ecstatic Dance journey to embody the 5 elements. We experience the quality of the elements through movement - one of the many creative ways we can bring Ceremony to our communities to work with the Spirit of the Master plant teacher - Mama Cacao. (AMAZING BONUS 2!! WE HAVE A 4 PART MASTERCLASS SERIES FREE ON THE ART OF SOMATIC DANCE FOR CEREMONY TO DEEPEN YOUR FACILITATION OF THIS MODALITY WITHIN YOUR OWN CEREMONIES!)

Her passion is to teach the art of embodiment and devotion to Self and Spirit through powerful healing practices.

AMAZING BONUS MODULES AND MASTERCLASSES!
Number one for facilitating powerful and transformative spaces lies in the Art Of Ceremony. Learning how to work with, move and direct energies within your Sacred Space in Communion with your team of allies and guardians is really what a ‘Medicine Ceremony’ in its most powerful and truest essence is really all about. And then… when we weave the power and potency of our Ceremonial Space with the Medicine of Cacao and other powerful Modalities such as Breathwork, Ecstatic Dance, medicine Song or Shamanic journeying, we can deepen the facilitation journey by adding richness and texture that take us into altered states of consciousness that help us to access the realms of wisdom and healing deep within..
