Humans have been gathering together to experience the beat of the drum for as long as 7,000 years. There is something primordial, powerful, and quintessential about experiencing simple drumming together with one's community.

Join our community at Willowbrook Health Center to see for yourself what the power of drumming can do for you. From 7pm to 9pm, every First Friday.

Guided by Ryan Drozd (@soundslikerad)

Ryan started attending drum circles weekly in 2024 to cope with depression and chronic neck and back pain. His goal as a facilitator is to provide open ended polyrhythms that allow others to authentically express themselves through sound. The CT drumming community has provided him with pain relief, relaxation, self-expression, and beautiful rhythms that he wishes to share with others.

Facilitator: Kristin Vece

Location: Willowbrook Health Center • 4 Willowbrook Rd, Cromwell, CT

Time: 6:45-8:00pm

Preregistration is required!

ABOUT THIS OFFERING:

Kristin's Sound Healing Meditation is channeled for the collective as an invitation to expand consciousness and enter into a coherent state of peace and wellbeing. With the intention that each individual receives what they need, these sessions have been reported to provide anything from blissful relaxation to transformative re-patterning of thoughts, intuitive access to Source insights, and even connection with loved ones and Divine helpers in Spirit.

Through the utilization of various energy medicine practices and reiki, guided meditation, aromatherapy, and intentional sound healing, participants are guided to a receptive state of healing and are encouraged to experience the session in whatever way works best for them.  This may yield a restorative restful time of self-care, soul revelations and journeywork, and anything in between. Please come with an open mind and heart, and we look forward to sharing healing space together!

Kristin’s background as a musician, certified sound healer, reiki master and intuitive guide allows for an integrative wellness experience.  Instruments such as crystal singing bowls, various drums, hammered dulcimer, and channeled vocal toning are regular fixtures in her sound healing practice, and each session will be uniquely different based on the energy and needs of the group that gathers in the space together.

While yoga mats, meditation seats, and zero gravity chairs are available, we suggest bringing anything that will make you most comfortable. (Blankets, pillows, etc.)

*Cancellation Policy: Cancellations made 6+ hours before class may be refunded or credited to another service with Kristin Vece. No refunds for last-minute cancellations or missed appointments. (To cancel, use the link in your booking confirmation email, or call or text Kristin directly at 860-266-6508 or elevatehealingarts@gmail.com.) Thank you for understanding that space is limited, and our time together is valuable! We appreciate your support!

Cacao is a plant from the tropical rainforest of the Amazon and it’s what chocolate is made from. It has been used for thousands of years by the Olmecs, Aztecs, and Mayans used for ceremonial and medicinal purposes.

Modern society is used to sweet chocolate candy, with tons of added sugar. However, when we have cacao in its purest form, it is considered a ‘super food’ and retains all of its healing benefits, living enzymes, and medicinal properties. Some healing benefits include anandamide (which is considered the ‘bliss molecule’ and creates a feeling of euphoria), antioxidants (it has more antioxidants than blueberries), magnesium and iron.

Cacao is called a ‘heart opener’ in which you can feel yourself open up, allowing space for self-love, compassion, and forgiveness. It allows for more creativity, focus, and motivation. Additionally, it can also help to create a greater connection with body and spirit.

*Disclaimer: It is not recommended to consume cacao if actively taking any antidepressants, have serious heart conditions, high blood pressure or epilepsy. You may or may not experience a headache or laxative effects from the cacao after the ceremony.

Class Description:

Explore the joys of women coming together as we prepare for and settle into the cold and hibernation season with the gift of warm hearts and crockpots to create our own light for the days ahead. This gathering we will be exploring the foundations of traditional candle making with natural yellow beeswax with either hand dipping or pouring candles into jars. While the beeswax scent itself has a natural honey aroma, there will be options to add essential oils to the pour candles.

Package this event & the Cacao Ceremony the next day for a discounted rate!

Materials Provided:

• 1lb pure beeswax

• Essential oils

• Cotton wicks for dipping and pours

• Cotton wicks and fasteners

• Glass jars for the pour candles (please bring own if you have jars you want to use!)
