Mystical Breathwork & Cacao Circle - A deep remembering
A journey back to self £35 / Place
A deep journey into the unseen
About the Session
This gathering is an invitation to remember who you are beneath the noise, the stories, and the roles you have carried. A space to soften, open the heart, and reconnect with the love, wisdom, and truth that already lives within you.
We begin by opening the space together, dropping in and calling in the elements, directions, and spirit of cacao to hold and guide our journey.
From there, we share ceremonial cacao, a sacred heart medicine used for centuries to support connection, presence, and inner awareness. As the cacao begins to work through the body, we gently open the heart and create space for what is ready to be felt.
A guided self-love meditation follows, inviting you into deeper compassion, acceptance, and connection with yourself. From this place, we move into group love and unity practices, remembering that healing is not only personal but collective. Together we create a field of connection, support, and belonging.
The journey then deepens through Mystical Breathwork.
Using conscious connected breathing, music, rhythm, and intention, the breath becomes a bridge into the deeper layers of self. As the thinking mind softens, emotions may move, insights may arise, and old patterns can begin to release. This is not about forcing an experience, but allowing yourself to be guided by the intelligence of your own breath.
Many people experience a sense of remembering during this work. A remembering of their worth, their connection, their purpose, their heart. Not something new to learn, but something ancient within themselves that has always been there.
We close the circle gently, allowing time to integrate the journey and return with greater clarity, openness, and connection.
If you feel called to this gathering, trust that feeling. Sometimes the deepest healing begins with remembering what was never truly lost.
Please note: Emotional and physical releases can occur during breathwork. All experiences are welcomed and held within a safe and supportive space.
Feeling Safe
Collective Healing
Our group sessions are held as a safe, shared space where you can arrive exactly as you are, no pressure, no judgement, just space to breathe and be. It's super powerful being in a space with others on the same journey, a quiet sense that you’re not alone in what you carry, each person held within a collective intention to soften, release and reconnect. Through conscious connected breathing, music and gentle guidance, you’re invited to turn inward and meet yourself with honesty and compassion, nothing is forced, everything is at your own pace. This is a space where self expression is welcomed, where you can let go of self criticism and allow whatever needs to move, to move. The circle holds you, the breath guides you, and what unfolds often stays with you long after you leave, creating a deeper sense of connection, both within yourself and with others.
And breathe...
What does a breath Session Look like?
Holotropic and Transpersonal States (Shamanic Style)
We always start with a grounding phase of around to establish a sense of presence.
The Activation phase lasts 10 minutes, inhaling through the nose and exhaling through the mouth while in a sitting or lying position, drums will guide us inward.
The Exploration phase, lasting 40 minutes, emphasises mouth breathing in a lying position to facilitate a deeper exploration of one's consciousness. (Conscious Connected Breath)
Lastly, we conclude with a 10-minute integration phase to help participants assimilate and reflect on their experiences.
How to Prepare for the session
Be prepared and wear comfortable clothing and please bring: Please dont eat a heavy meal within 4 hours before a session, something light is ok and stay hydrated.
- Yoga mat or folding matress - thicker the better for comfort
- Pillow(S)
- Cover/throw/quilt
- Water
- Notebook and pen
- Eye cover (advised but not essential)
Further Understanding
Conscious connected breathing works directly with the autonomic nervous system, the part of you that governs stress and safety, by changing the rhythm of the breath in a supported setting, we can help the body shift out of long held fight or flight responses and into a state where processing becomes possible, research in breathwork and somatic therapy shows that intentional breathing can reduce stress hormones, improve heart rate variability and support emotional regulation.
When something overwhelming happens and cannot be processed at the time, it does not simply disappear, it can remain stored as tension, protective patterns or unresolved emotional charge, breathwork allows access to these deeper layers in a way that talking alone often cannot, the analytical mind softens, the body speaks and what has been held can begin to move.
Nourishment for Mind, Body, Spirit
How this method can support you
There are times in life when you realise you are functioning, but not fully feeling. You might be carrying tension that never quite switches off, feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or tired of holding everything together. You may understand the story, yet your body still feels braced. A session can be powerful when you sense something is ready to shift, when you are willing to meet yourself honestly, and when you want support to move from coping into genuine regulation and reconnection. This work is for those moments when you know you are ready to go deeper, safely and with guidance.
This method can support you with:
- Releasing stored stress and unresolved emotional tension
- Reducing anxiety and chronic nervous system activation
- Processing grief, transitions, or significant life events
- Reconnecting with your body and emotional awareness
- Gaining clarity during periods of change or uncertainty
- Strengthening resilience and emotional regulation
- Softening protective patterns that no longer serve you
- Deepening your relationship with yourself, mother earth and the unseen.

Contraindications
Important: Please Read
Contraindications For Cacao
Although cacao is safe for most of us some people should take extra precautions for themselves before eating or drinking cacao.
Cacao is contraindicated with antidepressants including some SSRIs and all MORI antidepressants. If you are on high doses, I would not advise drinking a cacao. If you are on smaller doses smaller amounts of cacao are usually ok, but as always consult your doctor. In the weeks leading to the ceremony, you may want to test doses. Start with 5-10g in 250ml of water and see how that is for you. Please note cacao raises serotonin levels significantly.
For people with increased anxiety, a history of seizures, diabetes and heart conditions please consult your doctor before ingesting cacao.

This was a tough session for me, as I noticed lots of inner barriers throughout the session, but once I let myself go a bit, I felt an incredible sense of energy, that gradually moved out of my body and continued to be processed throughout my day and beyond. It's taken me a couple of weeks to reflect on what I have experienced but I can see how the stuckness and stagnancy I was experiencing prior to the breathwork has now shifted and I am feeling more purposeful and optimistic. The session was structured, and managed really well by Shane, with his care and support obvious throughout and afterwards. This can be an intense experience but well worth it, if you're up for some deep inner explorations and energy shifts!

This was an incredible experience. Shane had already created and set the space before I arrived putting thought and care into everything. I immediately felt at ease and supported which is essential for this kind of inner work. Before the breathwork started Shane outlined exactly the process and we introduced some movement and set intentions for the session so I felt fully prepared before the breathwork began. The breathwork itself was not easy or passive it was fully engaged and enhanced by music and Shanes guidance. I felt seen, heard, held - I wont go too much into my personal experience because it would be different for everyone but personally I felt a huge release of emotion and immense sense of gratitude. Thank you thank you thank you I cannot wait to come again.

I had been to breathwork sessions before but not on this level. Shane is an amazing space holder and is fantastic at explaining everything clearly and making you feel comfortable and safe. The breathwork was really tailored to me and my needs and with the blending of the music and sound, I was able to really delve deep into what needed to be released. I'm not going to sugarcoat it, it's tough journey but I have been able to process things that years of therapy couldn't. I'm eternally grateful for the work Shane does and will be booking in regularly to keep finding those little forgotten prices of myself.

I went into this holosomatic breathwork session feeling tired and honestly not that open to it. I’ve experienced a few breathwork sessions before and never really felt much shift, so my expectations were quite low. But this was completely different. From the start, Shane created a space that felt safe, and grounded. I experienced a level of clarity and release that I hadn’t accessed before. It felt like something really shifted within me and I could really let go. Since that day, I can genuinely say I’ve felt different. My mind feels clearer, calmer, and more spacious. It’s like a weight I didn’t fully realise I was carrying has lifted. I would wholeheartedly recommend Shane and this experience to anyone, whether you’re new to breathwork or have tried it before.
