Raw cacao (pronounced "ka-COW") is one of the most nutrient rich and complex foods known to man. Some experts consider it to be the #1 antioxidant food and to have the highest source of magnesium of any other food. Cacao also contains Anandamide, also known as the feel-good "Bliss Chemical". The cacao bean is considered a fruit and grows on the Theobroma Cacao tree, which is Latin for "food of the gods".

HARMONY DAWN RETREAT

October 12, 13, 14, 2012

4 pm Friday until 3 pm Sunday 

Harmony Dawn Ecological Retreat Center is a unique, sustainable energy haven that was conceived and constructed to inspire harmony, balance and transformation in both the external and internal environment.  Located 25 minutes north of Cobourg on 50 rolling acres of meadows and forests, it is part of the picturesque Trent Waterway System.  It offers a beautiful yoga studio that is south facing with floor to ceiling windows.  One feels like they are “within” the natural meadow, sometimes seeing deer, foxes or turkeys stroll by. 

This delightful weekend will consist of:

Yoga Nidra [Conscious sleeping] on Friday night

Morning and afternoon Yoga classes + gathering for chanting and music!

Naturopathic workshop

Time for nature walks, curling up by the fire with a good book and restfulness

Craniosacral treatments, Shaitsu massage and Indian Head Massage available for additional charge

Nienke offers a compassionate yoga style that invites you to create the practice that is appropriate for your body and your energy level in each moment.  She believes that peace begins within oneself.  Her classes provide a sanctuary to wander through the yogic journey uncovering the layers that bring inner peace and contentment.  Nienke is passionate about sharing yoga and invites you into a journey on the mat which can be applied off the mat, bringing peace into the world.

Elizabeth McAvoy is in private practice as a Naturopath and promotes the philosophy that we are all self-healing, vitally energetic and vastly intelligent beings with a natural impulse to heal and be whole. Recognizing, trusting and loving the voice of body, mind and energy are foundational attitudes she weaves into the various aspects of her self-practice and work with others.
