High Tide

Cannabis & Sound Journey

Thursday, Oct. 22nd

6:30-9pm ~ Private Studio in Langford (address given to registrants)

When approached with presence and respect, cannabis can soften habitual thinking, heighten our awareness of the body, and deepen our capacity to listen inward. Research suggests it may temporarily reduce activity within the brain's Default Mode Network, the network associated with self-referential thought and mental rumination… while enhancing interoception, our awareness of sensations arising from within the body.

Beginning with grounding breath to settle the nervous system, we'll ceremonially smoke cannabis together, welcoming in the spirit of this beautiful plant ally. Then gently transition into a restorative sound journey where chimes, drum, voice, crystal lyre, and other therapeutic instruments become anchors for awareness. Sound supports the nervous system by encouraging parasympathetic activity, slowing brainwave patterns toward deeply restorative states, and inviting the body into rest while the mind quietly observes.

This is not about escaping yourself.

It is an invitation to meet yourself with curiosity.

To notice.

To soften.

To listen.

Whether you arrive seeking clarity, rest, emotional spaciousness, or simply an evening to reconnect with yourself, this intimate ceremony offers a gentle container to receive exactly what is present.

This gathering includes:

• Optional intentional cannabis medicine*

• Gentle nervous system regulation through breath

• A restorative immersive sound journey

• Integration, sharing, snacks and herbal tea

Value: $55
