This is a ceremony and a dance practice which combines healing power of magic truffles and transformative dance technique called Embody Peace (developed by Iskra Bela). After sinking deeper into yourself and your body, the ceremony will unfold into an Ecstatic Dance.

Participants take a microdose of magic truffles in a ceremonial and safe setting. It takes approx. 30 minutes for a microdose to be felt. Effects are mainly noticeable in the body, a person might feel more relaxed and ready to work deeper. During this time we will do breathing and physical exercises for opening and preparation of the body. After that follows a guided dance practice, in which participants are stimulated to visit their “forgotten body parts”, places in the body where traumas, inner wounds, subconscious feelings, thoughts, dreams, etc. are stored. By activating those body-parts, in a more open way due to the microdosing, and by integrating everything through Embody Peace dance, participants are introduced into a more holistic bodily awareness. This awareness can be used to deepen your meditation and yoga practice, your (ecstatic) dance practice, your inner work or your daily life. The practice is simple, and anyone can do it.

Next to the dance and experience guidance, this event will be simultaneously musically guided by the ecstatic dance DJ – Samaya.
