SUMMARY:How the Heart Designs Time: Immersion Experience (Sold Out)
DESCRIPTION:Update: although this event is sold out\, if you are interested in bringing the same immersion experience to your town and community\, reach out and we can design it together! \nWe’re thrilled to invite you on another unique walk through the quantum wilderness! On Saturday\, May 17th at the forest sanctuary home of our friends Jason and Tanya Henkel\, they’ll be hosting us in one of their innovative and playful Deviation Gatherings. \nIf you’re craving a recalibration towards your inner guidance system — whether you’ve been stuck in your head\, feeling overwhelmed\, or experiencing anxiety\, fatigue\, burnout\, or mild depression — this experience will be the tune-up and warm embrace you need. \nHow the Heart Designs Tell Time – Immersion Experience\nNature’s Intelligence (NI) is the OG version of AI. NI winks and whispers\, “AI? Is anything truly artificial?” Then it winks again and replies\, “No\,” because everything is alive. Our most advanced technology is merely a toddler imitation of a cosmic wisdom—older than time—that we hunger to re-member. That’s why wisdom traditions and shamanic practices worldwide immerse themselves in nature’s teachings for healing and re-enchantment of our body\, energy field\, and planet. NI is our greatest mentor. When we begin to listen\, breathe\, move\, and pay attention to that aliveness within and around us\, we truly come alive. \nJoin Astara and Orion of Illuminating Hearts for an immersive day to re-enchant yourself and embrace your own nature—your aliveness. Get to know your soul architecture more intimately. Build the capacity to hold the infinite energy that you are\, and step onto a path of clarity and power. Enjoy personal reflection and healing\, Sound Alchemy (resonance medicine)\, a cacao heart-opening Hearth Tea ceremony\, Shinrin Yoku (Forest Bathing)\, transformational shamanic journeying\, breathwork\, soulful conscious movement\, time travel/quantum leaping\, and Merkaba activation. \nRelease the illusion that you must think your way through life. Instead\, learn how to feel your way!Become the conscious designer of your life to redefine soul-aligned success\, health\, thriving\, joy\, and higher consciousness. As if that’s not enough\, you’ll leave with a special gift: a signed copy of How the Stars Tell Time\, written by Astara. \nJoin us and other fellow seekers for an enriching\, fun\, and revitalizing experience! \nDate: Saturday\, May 17th\, 2025 (10am–7pm)\nLocation: Henkel’s “Forest Sanctuary” home\nCost (all included): $222 \n**Please RSVP at your earliest opportunity if interested by responding to this email** \n \nPS: This will be first come\, first serve\, and it will fill quickly. We’re keeping this gathering intimate\, capped at 20 participants. \nPSS: To keep cost to a minimum\, we are going to do potluck style snacks/food. \nBook a Heartifact Archaeology Session with Astara Raven!\nAstara will provide her signature Heartifact Archaeology sessions the next day after the immersion experience. \nChronic conditions\, negative habits\, and toxic thought patterns have roots in emotional and energetic imprints stored in the body and field. Astara will help you unwind deep-seated patterns and uncover authentic knowing at the soul root. \nAs a quantum architect and transformation coach\, her work mimics the systems thinking of Nature’s Intelligence using diverse tools: conscious tarot\, Sound Alchemy\, medical mediumship\, shamanism\, vortex healing\, channeling\, Energy Codes©\, Quantum Architecture©\, time travel\, DNA upgrades (ancestral healing)\, Akashic Records (other lifetimes)\, Soul Star Mapping© (astrology\, Human Design\, numerology)\, and more.

SUMMARY:Cacao & Sound: The Frequency of Love
DESCRIPTION:“The time has come to turn your heart into a temple of fire.” — Rumi \nMichaela Brown of Moonbeam Health & Wellness join Astara and Orion of Illuminating Hearts at Omaha Power Yoga to bring you an incredible cacao ceremony deeply supported by Sound Alchemy\, fluid movement\, guided meditation\, and journaling. This is a magical collective time where we can connect to open our mind to what is beyond the reach of our eyes and instead see with our heart\, our core\, and inner vision. \nThe instruments help dissolve the noise inside you that is not you\, allowing more flow and ease in your system. With the help of cacao and sound\, throw old outworn stories onto the bonfire of your heart. \nMichaela will lead us through the medicinal gifts of cacao as we ceremonially sip the cacao together\, preparing our bodies for heart opening. During the cacao ceremony\, Astara and Orion’s cathedral of sound creates sonic architecture for you to turn inward and reconnect to the magnificence of your heart\, body\, and soul. The cacao in combination with the sound is vibrational medicine that acts as an attunement\, bringing you into accord or sympathetic relationship with the frequency of love that you are made of. We will share toning\, fluid movement\, and breathwork to deepen our awareness of the heart\, body\, and energy field. Our resonance time machine opens you to the multi-dimensional nature you are\, allowing you to access your heart and the quantum field in a clearer way.\n \n\nSpace is limited\, **Preregistration and pre-payment are necessary** and due by Friday\, November 29th to hold your place.\nThe cost is $77 per person. Payments are nonrefundable after the pre-registration deadline 11/29/19. Please contact Omaha Power Yoga for assistance.\nCheck in time 10:45am. Event start time 11:00am.\nParticipants must be at least 18 years old. Preparation details for the cacao ceremony will be emailed prior to the ceremony.\nDress comfortably. Bring your favorite yoga mat/blanket/bolster/pillow to make a comfortable nest.\n\n \nBefore registering and paying\, please consider the following*: \n\nDo you have an allergy to chocolate\, honey\, or certain culinary spices?\nDo you have a serious heart condition?\nDo you have high or low blood pressure?\nAre you on blood thinners?\nAre you taking MAOI or SSRI antidepressants?\nAre you pregnant?\n\n*If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions\, please consult a medical doctor and Michaela Brown\, Registered Herbalist (AHG)\, at moonbeamhealthandwellness@gmail.com if you have questions about consuming cacao. \nWhat is Cacao? \nRaw cacao is the pure origin of what we know as chocolate. The fruit of the cacao tree contains beans from which the cacao is extracted and chocolate is made – with many additional ingredients. Cacao is native to Central and South America. Over its rich 4\,000-year history\, cacao has served as food and beverage\, health elixir and spiritual elixir\, sacred healing medicine\, and potent aphrodisiac. \nMoonbeam Cacao Ceremonies use 100% pure ceremonial grade cacao from a multigenerational Maya family business in a small village in Belize. Michaela’s relationship with this family started nearly a decade ago when she worked for a nonprofit to support their business. Their cacao is organic\, sustainably sourced\, and made with love\, romance\, and laughter\, the most authentic heart medicine infusion. In the ceremony\, the cacao will be brewed as a warm liquid and prepared with a traditional assortment of native spices and honey. \nWhat is Sound Alchemy? \nSound Alchemy is an organic\, restorative\, multi-instrumental sound immersion time machine creating a supportive space for you to renew and reconnect to your bio-intelligence. Our sonic architecture\, the “cathedral of sound\,” pulls from over 100 instruments representing musical traditions from around the world\, such as the gong\, didgeridoo\, flute\, drum\, shruti box\, singing bowl\, hand pan\, bell\, voice\, and more. Organic sound means no digital compression or amplification\, so the sound comes to you in full frequency. \nHere are just a few benefits of both Cacao and Sound Alchemy together:\n Bliss Out: Remember a joyful\, euphoric sense of well-being with self and the universe. \n Nourishment: Savor pleasurable heart medicine that nourishes body and spirit. \n Healing and opening: Reveal gentle healing and expansion around the heart. \n Inner exploration: Experience growth\, emotional release\, and play; strengthened perception of intuition\, insights\, and inspiration. \n Deeper understanding: Enjoy heart-centered focus\, concentration\, retention of information\, as well as enhanced creativity and productivity. \n Transformation: Accelerate personal transformation with flowing ease. \n Strengthen: Improve longevity and enlightenment practices such as meditation\, yoga\, tai qi\, qi gong\, and chanting. \n Dream Opening: Explore and open to powerful\, elaborate lucid dreams. \n Attunement: Tune yourself up with the stars\, the earth\, your natural rhythms\, your infinite truth\, and in turn lift those around you. Enter a frequency of trust to vibrate with the universe in the state that it is already in\, allowing miracles. \n Empowerment: Learn breathing and toning techniques to center and align yourself with your own fluidity. Learn new methods and daily practices you can take home to allow your power and life force to flow. \n Mindfulness: Cultivate mindfulness through beneficial resonance. Quiet the protective\, productive and seductive aspects of the personality or mind (ego). Reconnect to the harmony in and around you. Discover a deeper way of listening. \n Coherence: Ignite your core so your True Self flows through you fully. Harmonious resonance creates coherence with your three minds: gut\, heart and head. Thrive from living your heart’s vast wisdom. \n Embodiment: Embody your bio-intelligence. Organic resonance builds vagal nerve tone for well-being\, engages the parasympathetic nervous system for restoration\, and helps increase Heart Rate Variability for longevity and vitality. \n Superpowers: Discover your superpowers. Access gamma brain waves which access all brain waves\, increasing well-being\, better perception of reality\, incredible focus\, better self-control and richer sensory experience. \n Time-Travel: Travel multi-dimensionally through the quantum field beyond time to inspire visions\, creativity\, and to heal and restore your soul. Retrieve lost parts of you across space and time and become more wholly YOU. \n Connection: Transformation begins within your heart and transcendence unfolds in community. \n And much more! \nWhat our friends say:\n“I came to the cacao ceremony worried about a thing I needed to take care of. The cacao didn’t remove the worry\, but even better\, it transformed how I associated with it. It was like I was looking at the task itself and the emotion of worry and giving it all a big hug. After the ceremony I feel so much better and like I can take on that task with love and peace in my heart.” —Denise P.\, Omaha\, NE \n“Here are some of the positive things that happened to me: Balanced and healing of the heart chakra\, higher vibrating frequency\, and increased joy\, happiness\, focus\, and concentration. I received downloads from the universe about the future and felt motivation and clearer insight on how to move forward in life.” —Angie P.\, Omaha\, NE\n\n“I for sure have felt more creative and my heart is definitely vibrating in a different frequency. I’ve been feeling light and airy. Clearer headspace. It’s an interesting feeling hard to describe\, but a sensation of joy starts in the middle of my chest and resonates outward from that center point. Kind of like a subtle energetic current.” —Krischna H.\, Omaha\, NE\n“I just got to experience Illuminating Hearts for the first time tonight. It was an incredible journey\, via sound\, through the many places my mind was able to take me. Absolutely wonderful experience. A universal vacation through mind\, body\, and spirit. I look forward to more. Thank you!” —Brain Wetjen\, Omaha\, Nebraska \n“I had my first experience with Illuminating Hearts at a Sound Alchemy event last night. It was incredible! I can’t put words on it. I am still vibrating with the love and healing I experienced even this morning. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts! Many blessings be upon you! Abundant love and gratitude!” —Carol Radke\, Omaha\, Nebraska \n“Illuminating Hearts are pure magic. Never before have I felt vibration in every cell of my body\, creating a thrumming that transformed time and space. My whole body became rivers of sound. Orion and Astara are bringing a profound experience into the world\, don’t miss it!!” —Susan Steindorf\, Owner of Dayaalu Center\, Bainbridge Island\, Washington \n\n[av_image src=’https://astararaven.love/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/MB-bio-pic-640_269.jpg’ attachment=’5417′ attachment_size=’full’ align=’center’ styling=” hover=” link=” target=” caption=” font_size=” appearance=” overlay_opacity=’0.4′ overlay_color=’#000000′ overlay_text_color=’#ffffff’ copyright=” animation=’no-animation’ av_uid=” admin_preview_bg=”][/av_image] \n\n\nMichaela Brown is a Clinical Herbalist\, RH (AHG)\, Reiki Master\, Registered Yoga Teacher\, Birth Doula\, and owner of Moonbeam Health and Wellness\, LLC.
