Lion’s Gate is a potent activation time for our spiritual growth - it occurs when Earth, our Spiritual Sun, Siriius and Orion Constellation all align in the sky during the season of Leo whose astrological ruler is our Sun.  It occurs during the period of July 28th to August 12th, with the hight of its activity on August 8th.  Along with this astrological energy, August 8th (8/8) is also significant numerologically, bringing in the energy of ‘infinity’ and ‘magic’ - making this one of the most important days to set our spiritual intention.

Come and join Aki and Fumiha for rejuvenation and reset in order for you to align with your spiritual self, with the help of both our Sun and Sirius.  They are known to be the Sister stars which have an intimate binary relationship; and we can experience the surge of the spiritual energy offered by Sirius during this time when it is closest to our Solar system.

This workshop will include:

• Grounding Movement

• Sirius & Merkaba Activation

• Breathwork

• Drum Journey 

• Sharing circle

• Plant medicine microdose (optional)

You will be guided to dive deeper into preparation of the body and mind, in order for you to invite in the benevolent spiritual energy within the supportive community.

What to bring (Concrete floor - be sure to bring something to be comfortable):

• Your intention for spiritual growth and evolution

• Water bottle

• Comfortable clothing 

• Things to add to the collective altar

• Yoga mat, blanket, eye pillow or other items needed for breathwork (Make sure you are comfortable sitting down)

• Journal & pen (or whatever else you want to use to write)

• Abundance & juiciness to share and enjoy with your community - bring fruits, chocolate, herbal infusion, fresh veggies or whatever else that says ‘summer’ in your own interpretation

A note on Breathwork:

For those who are pregnant, or have conditions such as epilepsy, glaucoma, high blood pressure without medication, mental condition, recent surgery, or cardiovascular conditions will be guided to work with relaxing slow breath while working with the energy of release within the collective. If you have these conditions or have any other concerns, please contact Fumiha before the event at fmtishere@gmail.com

Tips for those who are joining Virtually:

• Make sure your phone and all other devices are off or on silent mode

• If you have pets, I suggest not having them around since they can be distracting during the session.

• During the breathwork session, please set up the angle of the camera to frame your head to at least knees. 

• Wear loose, comfortable clothes. (Leggings, sweat pants…etc)

• Choose a quiet area where you can lay down comfortably (not on the bed) and you won’t be disturbed for the duration of our sessions, and even up to about an hour after the session concludes.

• Please have a lightly cushioned mat (yoga mat and blanket) for the session. A bolster, pillow, blanket, and an eye pillow/eye mask can also be useful. If the blanket is needed to cover yourself, choose a thin blanket so I can see you better.

• Notify your flatmates that you will be in a breathwork /Energy healing session, and you may be voicing out and making sounds.

• A meditation cushion or yoga block is great for ideal posture when sitting for longer periods of time and can offer support and help ease any agitation in the low back during the session.

• Have a good wifi system and tune in from the computer, and not from the phone.

• Have water or non-caffeinated tea on hand, as well as light snacks like fruits, chocolate, nuts and other healthy fats for grounding after the session.

• A journal for after the session.

What Is Sliding Scale?

We provide all of our community offerings and some private sessions by sliding scale. We believe everyone is entitled to heal their wounds so they can thrive; we also believe that the wellness and healing practitioners deserve to make a living wage. In order to make this possible, we ask you to pay as much as you can, so those who might not be able to pay as much can still receive their healing session - this is the idea behind 'paying it forward'. We are all in this together, and we choose to do our best to take care of one another.
Thank you in advance!
