Expand: A New Year’s Heart-Opening Yoga & Cacao Experience

(Therapeutic, Somatic, Heart-Centered)

Begin the new year with an open heart.

Join Amanda Baker, LCSW-C 500hr RYT & Jennifer Salaverri, LCSW-C 200hr RYT, for Expand, a New Year’s Day yoga and cacao ceremony designed to soften the body, awaken emotional spaciousness, and set intentions from a grounded, heart-aligned place.

We’ll begin with a warm, ceremonial cup of cacao — a gentle plant medicine known for enhancing clarity, compassion, and emotional connection. As the cacao begins to open the heart, you’ll be guided through a therapeutic heart-opening practice including slow flow, restorative shapes, breathwork, and somatic unwinding to release the heaviness of the past year.

Through guided reflection, mindful movement, and embodied intention-setting, we’ll explore what it means to expand — not by force, but through softening, receiving, and aligning with what feels true.

You’ll leave feeling:

* More connected to your heart

* Clear in your intentions

* Rooted, open, and emotionally spacious

* Ready to enter the new year with grounded expansion

Bring: A yoga mat, water, and your journal.

Optional: Something meaningful to place with you as you practice

This is your invitation to begin the year gently with presence, openness, and a heart that is ready to expand.
