Men's Circle: A Journey of Heart and Presence

Events & 1:1 sessions in the temple space are open to people aged 21 and over, unless stated otherwise.

We always invite you to honour your body, take full responsibility for your wellbeing, and participate only as feels right.

Our facilitators are experienced in holding sacred, safe space — but this is not a substitute for therapy or psychiatric care.
These gatherings can sometimes surface buried emotions, memories, or grief. We encourage participants to seek professional support where needed, and to reach out to us for recommendations to integrative or trauma-informed practitioners.

You are never alone in your process — please let us know if you need aftercare or integration guidance.

This is a confidential and judgement-free space.
We ask that you come with an open heart, listen deeply, and respect the stories shared.

Please refrain from using phones, alcohol, or substances before and during the event.
Your full presence is your greatest gift to the circle.

To protect privacy and sacred space, photography and recording are not permitted during the ceremony.
You may capture a few respectful images before or after the circle, please ask permission to take photos of any people's faces.
If we intend to take our own photos or videos, we will notify you and you may decline to be in them.

Integration is where the real medicine unfolds.
After the circle, give yourself space to rest, hydrate, and journal any insights. Try not to rush anywhere or put yourself in a high stress environment post session.

You may feel lighter, clearer, or tender — all are natural signs of energetic release.

If you’d like additional support, we can recommend integration practitioners or one-on-one sessions with our facilitators.

Cacao (Theobroma cacao) is a sacred plant medicine from Central and South America, traditionally used in ceremony to open the heart, uplift the spirit, and deepen connection.

Unlike common chocolate, ceremonial cacao is a pure raw food, and retains its natural theobromine content — a gentle cardiovascular stimulant that increases blood flow and releases feel-good neurochemicals.

Cacao is not psychoactive but can create a warm, euphoric, heart-centred state when consumed intentionally.

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking antidepressant medication, please let us know — we can serve you a half dose or herbal alternative.

Hapé (pronounced ha-PAY) is a sacred shamanic snuff made from finely ground Amazonian tobacco (mapacho) and medicinal herbs.

Traditionally used by Indigenous tribes of Brazil and Peru, it’s a purification medicine that helps to clear the mind, ground the energy, and bring presence to the body.

In our ceremonies, hape is always optional and served in reverence. It can induce a short, grounding experience that may include mild physical effects (tingling, light dizziness, or clearing through the nose/throat).

Not suitable for those who are pregnant, have severe hypertension, or are highly sensitive to tobacco.

Some events may include breathwork, sound healing, or light touch (massage/bodywork) as part of the journey.

All touch is consensual, trauma-informed, and energetically respectful.

Breathwork can evoke strong physical or emotional releases — please inform facilitators beforehand if you have any physical or mental health concerns such as PTSD, cardiovascular issues, pregnancy, epilepsy, or recent surgery.

A drum journey is an ancient meditative practice used across many cultures to access altered states of awareness through rhythmic drumming.

The steady beat helps the brain shift into theta waves, a state of deep relaxation and intuitive insight.

In this state, you may receive visions, sensations, or symbolic guidance. There is no “right” way to journey — simply lie back, breathe, and let the sound carry you.

Sound healing uses sacred instruments such as didgeridoo, crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, chimes, and rattles to harmonize the energy body.

These frequencies invite the mind into stillness, allowing the nervous system to recalibrate and the body to release tension.

You may feel vibrations moving through your body, experience warmth, tingling, or emotional release.

There’s no need to “do” anything — simply breathe, receive, and let the sound wash through you.

Acupressure and acupuncture are ancient healing arts that work with the body’s energy meridians to restore flow, relieve tension, and bring balance to the internal organs and emotions.

Gentle pressure (or in some sessions, fine sterile needles) is applied to specific points to release blockages and support the natural self-healing process.

You may feel subtle pulses, warmth, or energy shifts as circulation and chi begin to move.

These sensations are a sign the body is rebalancing — relax and allow the process to unfold.

A deeply flowing Hawaiian-style temple bodywork that works on both physical and energetic levels. Long, rhythmic strokes using forearms, breath, and movement help release stored tension, open the heart, and restore balance to body and spirit. Expect a feeling of deep surrender, grounding, and emotional release.

An ancient Polynesian healing art that embodies Aloha — unconditional love. Lomi Lomi uses long, wave-like motions that soothe the nervous system and encourage circulation and relaxation. It’s a nurturing, restorative experience that reconnects you with your body’s natural flow and wisdom.

A traditional Chinese medicine practice that works with energy meridians (Qi) to bring harmony to the body’s systems. Fine, sterile needles are gently placed to release blockages, improve circulation, and balance organ function. Expect a sense of calm clarity as your body rebalances and energy realigns.

A guided therapeutic process that accesses the subconscious mind to gently reframe patterns, beliefs, and emotional imprints. MEMI (Memory Reconsolidation & Integration) blends hypnosis and trauma-informed therapy to dissolve triggers at their root. Expect to leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more in control of your emotional landscape.

A sacred conversation between you, the cards, and spirit. Tarot offers clarity, reflection, and guidance, helping you see patterns and possibilities with new awareness. Whether focused on life path, relationships, or purpose, the messages come through with honesty and compassion.

Your birth chart is a celestial map of your soul’s blueprint. In this session, we explore your planetary influences, patterns, and current transits to reveal insight into purpose, relationships, and cycles of growth. Expect a deeply validating and empowering reflection of your life’s rhythm and timing.

A guided shamanic meditation using rhythmic drumming to enter a trance-like state. The steady beat helps quiet the mind and open the intuitive field, allowing visions, messages, or healing energy to arise. Simply relax, breathe, and let the drum carry you between worlds.

An immersive vibrational experience using crystal bowls, didgeridoo, chimes, and voice to harmonize the body’s energy field. Frequencies work through the nervous system and subtle layers of consciousness, dissolving tension and restoring peace. You may feel waves of sound moving through you, leaving you centered and renewed.
