Opening the Heart | Setting the Tone | Welcoming the Weekend

Join us as we begin our Camp Breastie weekend with a grounding and heart-opening Cacao Ceremony designed to welcome you into the space, connect you to your intentions, and unite us in community. Led by holistic practitioner and Journey with Cacao co-founder Ally Lyons, this ceremony is a sacred invitation to slow down, open your heart, and begin the weekend from a place of presence, curiosity, and connection.

Cacao—known as “The Food of the Gods”—is a gentle, sacred plant medicine that supports emotional healing, creative insight, and deeper self-awareness. During this opening circle, we’ll sip ceremonial-grade cacao together, reflect on our personal and collective intentions, and create space for the medicine to show us what we need—individually and as a community.

Expect mindfulness, intention setting, gentle movement or breathwork, and meaningful moments of sharing—all held in a loving, supportive container.

Let this ceremony be your grounding moment—a soft yet powerful start to a weekend of transformation and soul-nourishing connection.

Friday June 6, 2025 4:00pm - 5:00pm EDT

TBA

There’s nothing empowering about being told, “This is just your new normal.” Join this one-hour workshop as we resolutely reject someone elses definition of our lives. Instead of settling for our old selves, but with a sheen of cancer, let’s redefine life and focus on what really matters to us. Living in alignment with your personal values, in big and small ways, can foster deep meaning, fulfillment, and a more authentic life.

What in your life brings you vitality and meaning? In this one-hour interactive workshop, you will learn about values and the benefits of living a life aligned with your own personal values. You will start to define or refine your own core values. Then, you will identify small actionable steps that resonate with your values- leaving with ideas to further step into the life you define for yourself.

Please bring a journal or notebook.

Step into a space of deep calm and energetic renewal during this Group Reiki and Meditation experience, guided by Reiki Practitioner and wellness facilitator Ally Lyons.

As Ally holds space, participants will be invited to relax, receive, and simply be.

This group experience is open to all—no previous meditation or energy healing experience is required. Come as you are, and allow yourself to soften into stillness, reconnect with your inner self, and leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more deeply aligned.

What to Bring:

A yoga mat or blanket
Pillow or bolster (optional for comfort)
