We gather in sacred space to remember who we are. 
To recalibrate, to heal, to find clarity in alignment with heart consciousness. 
To celebrate, and elevate, and excel on our soul's path.

You are warmly invited to a ceremony of sacred cacao, kundalini yoga and a long sound medicine journey, with Annabelle Charanbani and Arjuna Magee.

Activating a state of self-healing and transformation, bringing flow to your life force energy, attuning to the vision and guidance of your soul, elevating in spirit and optimising your sacred body vessel.

We will begin by sharing a cacao ritual together, communing with a beautiful organic ceremonial cacao tended by a Mayan family in the Lacandona jungle of Chiapas, Mexico. We then move into kundalini yoga kriya and meditation with live music, before flowing into a long sound medicine journey, inviting you to relax deeply, rejuvenate on a cellular level and experience a vaster plane of awareness.

Instruments include gong, crystal singing bowls, drums, flutes, voice, kora, handpan, guitar, chimes, rattles and more.

The yoga is accessible to all range of experience (including those who are new). Variations are offered throughout where appropriate. 


Annabelle guides from a trauma-informed perspective - please reach out if you have any questions about this.

“Really lovely and enlightening journey, both Annabelle and Arjuna were great hosts. The sound healing at the end was incredible and I really enjoyed learning about the magic of cacao.”

“Such a beautiful evening, so touched by all of the love that was offered into the room. Thank you again for a deeply nourishing evening.”

"Attending Arjuna and Annabelle’s event was truly nourishing all round. As guide, Annabelle's expertise will make of your journey a comfortable and safe space from beginning to end, without a doubt in good hands for the powerful Kundalini yoga part. A beautiful Cacao ceremony and the tapestry of sound harmonisation driving my imagination vividly wild. A majestic inner exploration with unique transcending qualities. Of blessed memory."


 

ANNABELLE CHARANBANI

My name is Annabelle, blessed also with the name Charanbani Kaur.

My path is devoted to the healing and creative arts, supporting people to come into greater presence and to engage with life with more passion, ease, curiosity and confidence. For this, we work towards optimising physical health, creative flow, connecting with spirit, and allowing the heart and soul to lead with greater clarity.

I primarily serve with kundalini yoga and meditation, sound medicine, intuitive storytelling, and holistic massage, accompanied by various plants.

This line of work is ultimately about finding balance. Of solar and lunar, personal and impersonal, infinity and finity consciousness, earth-water-wind-fire-ether. It includes detoxing physically and emotionally, reconciling and releasing tired memories, finding greater flow with creative energy and joy, and stimulating sensuality. We develop our relationship with the soul, and we become more awake to the ways in which wisdom and guidance is being transmitted in each moment.

Alongside my studies and certifications in kundalini yoga and sound healing, my approach is informed by:

- nearly 20 years of study and practice in various lineages of yoga;

- living and studying in the mountains of Chiapas, Mexico for the past few years, learning with nature, wisdom keepers and native medicine practices;

- studies and trainings in the neurophysiology of complex ptsd and its application to embodied practices, alongside my own lived experiences;

- over 10 years of guiding people in intuitive participatory storytelling;

- certification in holistic massage with a combination of TCM and Toltec techniques;

- trainings in energy healing and channelling;

- a background in theatre and the performing arts, as practitioner and teacher, with a BA from the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama;

- growing up in a rainforest in Australia, moving to the city at 8yo when my mother passed on, and finding my way back to nature

I'm in deep gratitude to my many teachers and guides - human, plant, element, animal and mineral - with whose perspective and company I've had the fortune to be gifted.

ARJUNA MAGEE

I  am a multi-instrumentalist with over 20 years of experience in music performance, recording, and teaching drums across the UK and abroad, and was raised in Glastonbury.

From an early age I developed a passion for music and rhythm. I was born into a bhakti tradition, and whilst on a family holiday to India at the age of 10 I fell in love with the ecstatic heartfelt folk music, kirtan. This began my journey of music education, receiving lessons on the Mridanga, the Harmonium, the drum kit, the African djembe, Indian, Irish and Japanese flutes, guitar, hand pan, kora and singing.

Since the age of 14 I’ve been performing with bands around Europe, playing and exploring many styles including Funk, Jazz, Reggae, Rock, Soul, Folk and World music.

As well as making music, a lot of my focus is now directed toward studying music and rhythm therapy.
