You may be carrying a quiet ache beneath the surface.

You may feel emotionally overextended–constantly tending others while your own heart feels depleted or overlooked. If you have been moving through your days feeling more guarded than open, more depleted than full, this ceremony was designed with you in mind.

Participants will be gently paired within the ceremony, with one person receiving at a time. Guided by intuition and the movement of spirit, roses are placed on the body as a form of rose healing that supports connection to the heart chakra and the release of negativity, stagnant energy, or held emotion. Each participant is held in this way with a full dozen roses as part of the experience, which are then theirs to take home, extending the medicine beyond the ceremony.

Receivers may experience sensations such as warmth, tingling, or subtle energetic movement as the heart opens. Each experience is unique, though the felt sense is often similar to other forms of energy work such as Reiki or breathwork. 

Leave feeling emotionally lighter, more open-hearted, and grounded in sustainable self-love and inner calm.

Please bring a dozen fresh roses with you on the day.
