MINI Community Sessions
Embodiment with Nature
Book me for your group of friends, family, events.
Each individual receives 20 minutes of private shooting with Julia after we drink cacao in prayer and connect with the elements of nature.
We will drink cacao in circle, share our prayers with the land and each other. This medicine facilitates the opening of the heart and body through the expansion of our blood vessels and connection with neurotransmitters in the brain that activate our bliss centers, along with the energetic qualities of this plant.
Once we are in this space together I will take each of you aside and explore the art of seeing and being seen, through the movement of your body and connection with the earth. In the time when I am shooting with others you will have the opportunity to connect with one another, journal, pull oracle cards, be with the plants and creatures in nature, and be held in a safe space of presence. I invite you to join me and other curious humans open to this adventure.
