Grounding Breathwork
Description:
Grounding Breathwork is a two hour ceremony where we will connect with ourselves, each other, and the earth through embodied movement, guided meditation, and conscious connected breathwork.
Breathwork is a powerful healing modality that provides a safe and gentle space where we can access our subconscious in order to heal stuck energy and emotions that may be stored in the body. Breathwork allows energy to flow freely through the body, old patterns to be released, and trauma to be processed. Breathwork Costa Mesa events are a truly a transformational practice where we can receive deep healing, greater love for ourselves, and more bliss in this life.

KAP | Kundalini Activation Process
Description:
KAP is a transmission of life force energy that activates the Kundalini awakening process. It’s a transmission process, not a self-willed/self-generating process.
It’s different than other self-generating wilful practices or kundalini experiences such as kundalini yoga, tantra, or chi gong…where you are generating your own energy to rise. KAP is the path of surrender, not a self-willed/self-generating process.
In KAP, the energy comes in from the top of the crown, down towards the root chakra, it gradually builds and eventually starts flowing both ways.
It’s a very natural process. The energy will build gradually for each session and has an intelligence that will do exactly what your system needs in the moment. Each class will bring about different experiences.
A profound rewiring of the brain structure and central nervous system happens with continued exposure. Every “symptom” or sign of a kundalini awakening from the earliest signs to the later end manifestations are seen regularly in participants.
KAP is generally considered safe, though given that it is such a powerful transmission, please be aware that it can sometimes bring up difficult or unprocessed emotions.
This is a healthy part of the process so it is advised to give yourself time afterward to support integration if you happen to have a strong session
.
KAP is safe for pregnant women up to 7 months.
About the Founder & Facilitator:
Venant Wong is a Master Transmission vehicle, and the founder of KAP. He has hand-picked and trained a select number of facilitators to do this work throughout the world, and through his unique ability to work with kundalini energy, has imparted the ability for his facilitators to also transmit this energy.

Breathwork and Sound Bath
Description:
Breathwork supports so many of the challenges everyone experiences. It reduces stress, creates feelings of openness, love, peace, gratitude, clarity, communication, and connection. Breathwork also helps release trauma or mental, physical, and emotional blocks, as well as anxiety, depression, fear, grief, and anger.
One of our most cherished Costa Mesa events, this experience begins with each person lying down or seated in a comfortable position, often with a blanket and an eye mask. After a few minutes of guided focus on the breath, the remainder of the experience is filled with different sounds and frequencies being introduced in succession. The sounds are created by a variety of overtone-emitting instruments including tuning forks, gongs, shruti box, Himalayan and crystal singing bowls, chimes, and voice.
When you sink into a Sound Bath and guide your awareness to your listening, you allow your brain waves to slow, shifting from a more active state to a more relaxed state, or even a dreamlike state.
The sounds introduced during a Sound Bath are an invitation into a deeper state of consciousness, an opportunity to unplug from external stimuli and to gain perspective on what’s going on within you. The goal of the experience is to invite deep rest and relaxation, and explore self-inquiry and self-discovery.
Instructor: Zaire Black

Journey to the Heart: Cacao Ceremony, Breathwork and Sound Bath![Costa Mesa Cacao Ceremony with Breathwork and Sound Bath]( "Costa Mesa Cacao Ceremony with Breathwork and Sound Bath")
Description: Join us for an epic journey into your own heart. We will begin together in a sacred cacao ceremony setting intentions and sharing in this sweet plant medicine. We will then open and activate the heart through guided breathwork and meditation. Finally we will lay down, in loving surrender for deep integration with vibrational medicine. Trained sound practitioner, Sydney, will play a variety of traditional instruments, including gongs, Tibetan singing bowls, crystal singing bowls, indigenous drums, rainsticks, tuning forks, kalimbas, and koshi chimes. We can’t wait for this profound yet playful night of heart opening and deep relaxation.
Session Includes:
- Sacred Cacao Ceremony
- Guided Breathwork and Heart Meditation
- Sound Healing Experience
- Closing Circle
Everything vibrates, this includes human beings. Every organ, cell, and bone in our bodies has an optimal healthy frequency. A healthy state creates a natural frequency in harmony with the rest of the body. When the vibration of a part of the body is out of harmony, we have “dis-ease” creating disease. When intentional sound is projected into the unbalanced area, correct harmonic patterns are restored at a cellular level.
The sound is constant and assists the participants in coming into a deeply relaxed state. Sound, especially overtone-emitting instruments, bypass the intellectual, analytical hemisphere of the brain while stimulating alpha and theta brain waves. Together we will shift our brainwaves, entering into harmonious states that are highly conducive to physical, mental and emotional well being.
Feelings of deep peace, bliss, and rest are common sensations after sound bath Costa Mesa events. Some people feel renewed happiness, others feel lighter as they release emotional or physical pain. Others have said they leave energized, feeling like they had a full night’s sleep. Every sound session is unique and the benefits vary for each person! Sound baths are Orange County events for EVERYONE and are not only healing and a great introduction to meditation.
Instructors: Sydney Strabala

MEDITATION 101 Costa Mesa Event WITH SAM BERMAN
Description: In Herbaculture Yoga’s Meditation 101 Costa Mesa events, we will explore the different kinds of meditation and learn the tools to lay the groundwork for a consistent personal practice like…
- Meditation can help with so many different aspects of life. It can help us to connect with ourselves in a way that opens us to a feeling of inner peace, more self-awareness, reduced anxiety and stress, better sleep, improved memory, and attention span, connecting with our felt-sense experience, and much more.
- We will also explore various techniques, such as vipassana or open awareness, guided meditation, moving meditation, breathwork, metta or loving kindness, and more. We will also discover the different ways specific kinds of meditation can benefit us.
This Costa Mesa events workshop is perfect for everyone, whether you are someone who has never meditated, someone who has tried here and there, or even the more practiced meditator.
Samantha Berman is an Embodied Mindfulness Coach and Teacher, Yoga teacher, Holy Fire Reiki master, Massage therapist, Tarot/Oracle reader, Plant and Animal Mom, and lover of life!
