Description
Abaton Belize and SoulPlay invite you to participate in a holistic voyage of body, dreams, mind and spirit…
Together, we will embark on a journey of SoulPlay to align with the currents of ancient meditative arts, including body cleanse, sacred theater, drumming, plant walks, active journaling, group ceremony and dream incubation.
We will also navigate messages from dreams of the day, and of the night, connecting with the scared spirits of this special land, discovering the powers of its medicinal plants and enriching our imagination and depth.
We look forward to the journey on this path together…
