Do you remember what it felt like to sing out loud as a child? It’s time to free your voice and let it resonate fully. For all humans, the voice is a conductor - a meeting point between spirit and matter. Yet, over time, we have built barriers around it, shaped by the experiences and lessons life has taught us. Our voice holds the key to our soul and inner power. It is magnificent, wise, and deeply spiritual, yet for generations, we have silenced it. Now is the time to reclaim it. Yael Deckelbaum - singer, musician, and inspiring vocal guide - invites you to Voice Ceremony, a space where you will learn to dissolve the barriers that have kept your voice hidden. Through breathing techniques, vocal exercises, and simple tools, you will rediscover your voice, embrace it with love, and enjoy its free expression - both individually and in harmony with others. Together, we will unfold the wings of our hidden voice, allowing it to soar freely. With the support of the circle, you will remember what it feels like to be truly free in your own expression. This workshop blends meditative methods with practical vocal techniques, including exercises, improvisation, circle singing, ceremony, choir and prayer. No experience needed - this workshop is for anyone who simply loves to sing.

There comes a time when descending into darkness is not a fall, but a choice. The Rites of the Underworld ceremony invites an inner descent. Not as a punishment, but as a conscious step to remind ourselves of who we are under the weight of roles, defense mechanisms, and identities that no longer serve. It invites you to an experience that is inspired by the ancient Sumerian myth of the goddess Inanna and her pilgrimage to the underworld. The story and the sound take you on a journey that is neither an escape nor a loss, but a practice of surrender. By descending, we give space for that which is meant to die, to rest, or to be transformed into new wisdom. The ceremony creates a shared space like a circle around a fire where one can lay one's own story. Whether through word, movement, song or silence. The body becomes an instrument of listening. Breath, presence and sharing together create the conditions for release and deeper truthfulness. Rites of the Underworld is not a production. It is a ritual of release. A descent into the fertile darkness where truth matures and transformation begins.

The Sabbath Blessing Ceremony is rooted in ancient Jewish tradition, but today it embraces all traditions. We have chosen to come together and offer blessings for the goodness of life. We will pray over the light (candles), the elements, the wine ("life-giving liquid"), and the bread ("food"). Together, we will create a sacred circle of gratitude through prayers, songs, and the energy of love. Come dressed in white and feel free to bring musical instruments.

Do you feel the shift coming? Maybe now is the time to connect with something greater and find each other in it. In these times of great transformation and expanding consciousness, we gather for the greatest good of all. Together, we awaken our true power. We open a sacred space and co-create a field of unity, healing, and harmony through prayer, song, movement, and shared intention. Come experience the feeling of oneness that cuts through the illusion of separation. Activate your inner leader, your hope, your light and let it ripple into the world around you. We ignite the flame of peace within and between us.

Join our Community Sharing Circle – a loving, supportive space where we come together to reflect, share, and integrate our festival journey. Here, you are invited to express your experiences, insights, and feelings – and to listen with an open heart and mind to other members of our festival family. Meet authentically and allow yourself to be held in a space of compassion and presence. Together, we weave connection, deepen understanding, and nourish the soul – leaving with a sense of belonging, clarity, renewal, and purpose.

Looking for a moment to relax and tune into your body? The Cacao and Sound Journey is an experience designed for anyone seeking a space for relaxation and self-awareness. Using the natural effects of cacao, simple meditation exercises, and soothing sounds, the program guides you through moments of slowing down, releasing tension, and becoming more aware of your feelings and needs. This experience helps you find greater calm and reconnect with yourself in a supportive and welcoming environment.

Step into the quiet magic of creation. Garra will be preparing her sacred bush medicine by the fire, surrounded by steam and nature’s presence. This is not a guided session, but a silent offering - an invitation to simply witness. Slow down, breathe, take in the scents, the warmth of the flame, and observe the ancient art of medicine-making as it unfolds before you.

Curious about how indigenous cultures work with intention and sacred tobacco? Come honor the full moon in a circle of sharing, singing and prayer. We'll share the sacred prayer pipe we use at the Moon Dance in Mexico. Tobacco is a great medicine that has been misused and misunderstood for centuries. When we reconnect with its power and ceremonial significance, we discover in it a tool for profound communication. It is a way to express our innermost thoughts and prayers towards existence and the Great Spirit. We will gather around the sacred fire, hear the story of the origin of the obsidian pipe, sing and pray together. As the ancient indigenous peoples did. Together we will send the power of our intention into the spiritual plane where everything comes into being before it materializes in the world of matter.
