Lisa Devi: Cacao Ceremony / Musical Accompaniment

Lisa Devi began her yoga journey at the age of 10; her father encouraged the path of yoga, and has been her biggest supporter ever since. In 2012, a transformative workshop profoundly shaped her path, revealing her dharma—to lead beings through self-discovery towards inner guidance. As a dedicated and multifaceted practitioner, Lisa Devi combines her roles as a 500-Hour Yoga Teacher, Qigong Teacher, Sound Journey Facilitator, and Vocalist/Musician of prayer to create the opportunity for transformative healing experiences. Her mission is to empower individuals to integrate these tools of awareness into daily life, and explore their consciousness potential for wellbeing. 

Sound Journey

July 26 at 7pm | Just Bee Yoga; Long Grove

Sound Healing (Nada Yoga) frequency vibration helps to shift our state of being (physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually) back to our natural state of harmony. This is frequency medicine, bringing a vibrational massage all the way down to the cellular level to unwind the mind and bring deep relaxation and inner peace. In these states of consciousness, participants may experience enhanced creative vision, self and soul learnings, and release from all things exacerbated by stress. 

Comfortably seated or reclining, you will have plentiful time to rest, meditate, contemplate and marvel while Lisa Devi creates an evolving soundscape of crystal bowls, Tibetan bowls, Native American flutes, vocal mantra meditation, harps, chimes, and many other instruments. Some choose to rest for the whole time, others move or stretch as inspired. 

Please dress comfortably in clothing that allows easy movement.

POSSIBLE BENEFITS INCLUDE: 

• Increased vital energy flow, creativity, intuition and motivation

Luminous • Conscious Dance & Cacao Activation

June 15 at 6-10pm | The Node; Chicago

On the heels of two spectacular sold-out events, we invite you to join us for a magical summer indoor/outdoor session of LUMINOUS with Hummingbird.

LUMINOUS is a place to completely lose yourself in the music, to dance in a beautiful, safe and sacred space without the usual distractions, to connect with like-minded souls, and allow intuitive movement to activate your innermost source of wisdom, alignment and joy.

Bridging the realms of dance culture and soul-centered rejuvenation, we create transformative experiences that open you up to the rich depths of conscious connection with music, movement, the beautiful medicine of cacao and ignite deep within the invigorating energies of Summer.

An alcohol-free event, we'll begin with a ceremonial cacao activation, bringing us together in community to ground, connect and open our hearts to the beautiful dance experience that awaits us. Lisa Devi will again be joining us to facilitate the cacao activation with her beautiful musical gifts.

We'll be dancing at a beautiful new indoor/outdoor space: THE NODE. This new space was intentionally created as an alcohol-free space for soul-centered connection and joyful community. We're starting a bit earlier so we can dance from sunlight, through twilight and into evening.
